About this event
If you’re curious about how health innovation, production, and community can come together in one place, this open day is a smart place to start. healthhub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa | Open Day is designed for people who want to step inside the ecosystem, meet others working across related fields, and get a clearer sense of what is being built in Lisboa around health, manufacturing, and collaboration. About the Event This is an in-person open day in Lisboa focused on healthhub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa. The format is approachable by design: rather than a closed-door industry gathering, it opens the space to a wider community of people interested in how ideas, products, and partnerships take shape in a real-world setting. At its core, the event is about access and visibility. It gives attendees the chance to experience the environment firsthand, understand the purpose of the hub, and connect with the people and conversations forming around it. If you’ve seen the name before but want to know what it actually looks and feels like in practice, this is the moment to find out. Because it sits at the intersection of community, networking, and a factory or manufacturing context, the day is likely to appeal to people who think beyond theory. It’s for those who want to see spaces, meet peers, and understand how a physical hub can support work in health-related innovation and production. What to Expect Expect a day built around exploration, conversation, and discovery. As an open day, the experience will likely be less about sitting through a long program and more about moving through the space, learning how it works, and speaking directly with others who are part of or curious about the hub. You can expect opportunities such as: Getting to know the space and what healthhub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa is intended to support Meeting other attendees from across the local community, including people interested in health, innovation, operations, and manufacturing-related work Informal networking that allows for real conversations rather than rushed introductions Context on the hub’s role within the broader Lisboa ecosystem A closer look at the environment where collaboration and practical work can happen side by side The value of an open day is that it gives you room to engage at your own pace. You might spend part of the morning listening and observing, then move into one-on-one conversations once you’ve got your bearings. That flexibility makes it useful whether you arrive with a specific goal or simply want to understand the landscape better. If you’re deciding whether this space is relevant to your work, this event should help you answer practical questions: What kind of activity happens here? Who is showing up? How connected is it to the wider community? And where might there be room for collaboration, partnership, or future involvement? Why Attend Open days are most useful when they help you replace assumptions with direct experience. Instead of reading about a hub from a distance, you get to see the setting, understand the energy, and evaluate the fit for yourself. That matters if you’re considering future collaboration, participation, or simply trying to map what is happening in Lisboa. This event is also a good use of time if you value proximity to people doing practical work. In community-driven spaces, some of the best outcomes come from side conversations: a shared challenge, a useful introduction, a new idea sparked by seeing how others are approaching similar problems. Being in the room creates possibilities that don’t show up in a website description. You may leave with: A clearer understanding of what healthhub by Unicorn Factory Lisboa is and who it serves New contacts across community, innovation, and manufacturing-adjacent networks Better insight into how health-focused initiatives can connect to physical infrastructure and collaborative spaces A more grounded sense of where you might plug in, contribute, or follow up after the event For anyone building, exploring, or connecting within the health and innovation landscape, that clarity is valuable. Even a short visit can help you sharpen your perspective on the ecosystem and spot opportunities that are easier to recognize in person than online. Practical Details The event takes place in person in Lisboa, Portugal on Wednesday, March 4 at 10:00 AM GMT. Being there physically is part of the point: this is a chance to experience the atmosphere, layout, and community dynamic directly rather than through a presentation alone. A morning start makes this well suited to attendees who want to begin the day with focused conversations and fresh energy. If you’re planning your schedule, it’s worth arriving ready to engage, ask questions, and take the time to move through the space rather than treating it as a quick stop. A few useful ways to prepare: Come with a short introduction to what you do and what you’re exploring Be ready to talk about your interests in health, community, manufacturing, or collaboration Leave room for informal conversations, since those are often where the most useful connections happen Bring a curious mindset and use the open format to ask practical questions If you’ve been looking for a concrete entry point into this part of Lisboa’s ecosystem, this open day offers one. It’s straightforward, in-person, and built around the simple but important idea that seeing a place and meeting its people is the fastest way to understand its potential.
