FAQs
Do I have to speak English?
No. English is the default language but feel free to speak in whatever language you feel most comfortable. There are also non-locals who like to practice their Basque!
Do I have to introduce myself?
Yes, but you can do this in the language you feel most comfortable in. After the Keynote speech, everybody should give a brief, 30-second introduction, just explaining who you are, why you are at the event and anything you feel relevant. If you have any proposals to make or anything tangible you would like to share this is a great time to do it as you have everyone’s attention but be as brief as possible,
What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event?
The venue is in the center of Bilbao so transport options are numerous. There is NO hotel parking. If you are coming from Donosti please us the Linkedin Group to try establish a carpool system.
Can I invite other people
Yes, please do but remember that trust is a key factor so invite people that you genuinely trust.
Dress code?
Whatever you are comfortable with, most come business casual.
