Me and Society Conference

"Me and Society" was a full-day conference at All Portugal Space built around one practical question: how to actually make life in Portugal work, day to day. Eleven speakers covered education and children's benefits, language and culture, personal finance and banking, real estate, employment, immigration law, and the citizenship process.

Speakers included Vadim Matveev and Olga Belova on education and migration law, Elena Teitelbaum (a Portuguese-language instructor and literary translator fluent in six languages) on language and culture, financial consultant Alena Alekseeva, an invited speaker on demographics, realtors Darya Neves and Oksana Mateush, HR expert Olga Gatsuts, immigration lawyer Dr. Evgenia Morozova, and physician and citizenship-process advocate Ilya Bobin. The day closed with a panel on recent changes to citizenship law.

Full presentation slides from the speakers are available on the conference materials page.

Opened with brief remarks from Anna Kopylkova, founder of All Portugal.
