He has also curated several exhibitions in Portugal.

The optional excursions that are planned are an important part of our programme, allowing for you to continue networking offsite, not just with other GGI members but also any of their family and friends who have travelled with them. We have some exciting trips planned, covering the Lisbon Seven Hills, Belem, and even Sintra and Cascais. If you've registered but you haven't signed up for one of these tours, make sure to check the programme (downloadable from the internal area of our website) so that you can add them to your programme. Spaces for all tours are limited.
We're looking forward to meeting up with our members in Lisbon; we hope that you'll be there.
