At The International Talks, 85 expats, brands, and government officials were informed, inspired, and connected with honest people and opportunities.

The first day started with a beautiful special message from Austria's Minister of Europe, Integration and Family, Claudia Plakolm, whom we sincerely thank for ensuring our voice is heard.

After that, we moved to another influential female leader - a live podcast with the co-founder of Impact Hub Vienna and a friend: Alexis Eremia, who shared her genuine experience of overcoming challenges in Austria and creating something meaningful.

We introduced an exclusive English-speaking job market that will only be made public by the end of the year.

The second day, we had eight more speakers and a stand-up comedy - all of them made us laugh and cry, and it was the best set of feelings one can have in a day.

The event concluded with a fantastic networking session, during which I was proud to see that every single participant was talking to someone. No one was left alone. There's a word for that: community.

Remember: A rising tide lifts all boats!

Thank you to our key partners who made this event financially possible: Vienna Tourist Board, Impact Hub Vienna, and Hotel Parks 73.
