GO Youth Conference

GO Youth Conference

GO Youth Conference is a pioneer event in Lisbon about young entrepreneurship, innovation and creativity. For over 5 years GYC brings together the community of startup founders, CEO’s, investors and educational experts with international tech and social entrepreneurs, global change makers, university students and general public interested in innovation and global achievement. We started this project back in 2011, still high-school students.

The economic climate in Portugal at the time was uncertain, with youth unemployment quite rampant. Much of the discussion was around the legitimacy of different ways to tackle these problems. As we grew in size GO Youth Conference attracted bigger and brighter names to our lineup – all of them being young and creative or those who opened avenues for them.

Today we stand firmly on our feet as one of Lisbon’s top annual innovation and creativity events. We are proud to have helped all those who came to us looking for guidance and knowledge and that they are now leading or contributing to successful startups. During the GO Youth Conference there are always several side events to network and share ideas outside of the day-time activity.

The official language of the event is English. Check the website GO Youth for more details.
