Most candidates never find out why they didn't get the offer — because the person who decided never tells them. Julien is on the other side of that table: US companies pay him to make the call, and in his keynote he reveals exactly what tips the decision and how to become the candidate he'd choose.

Companies invest heavily in tools and workflows, yet many distributed teams still struggle with trust and misalignment. Renita unpacks why cultural intelligence is the missing edge — both for leaders hiring across borders and for nomads competing in a global market.

The best distributed teams aren't purely remote — they're strategic about when and how they bring people together in person. Gina covers how to design IRL moments with intention and measure their ROI, with hands-on tips for offsite strategy and execution.

The remote work movement has a word for freedom. It doesn't have one for belonging. Ángela-Jo draws on 25 years of designing integration programs for immigrant and refugee communities to explore what rootedness actually requires — and what it means for anyone living and working across borders.

Most people looking for remote work don't have a skills problem — they have a visibility problem. Patrick covers how to use AI to audit your existing skills, shape your story, and build a personal brand that gets you noticed for remote opportunities.

In 2018, Beatriz turned down a promotion and went remote with less than €1,000 in her bank account. No roadmap, no community. Her session maps what it actually took — finding clients, building systems, and growing something of her own alongside it.

In this keynote, Mark Barrato breaks down the five-part growth flywheel successful businesses are using to capture more leads, nurture better conversations, close more opportunities, generate reviews and referrals, and reactivate old contacts.

Attendees will learn where most businesses lose revenue inside their customer journey and how AI-powered systems can help them respond faster, follow up more consistently, and grow without adding more manual work.

This session is practical, actionable, and designed for business owners who want to use AI to create a smarter, more efficient growth system.

18 months ago, Adam was homeless in Las Vegas. Now he runs a remote agency from Thailand using AI — and he's bringing the exact workflows, client strategies, and collaboration methods that took him from rock bottom to nearly $25K in his first five months.

Most remote team-building conversations stay at the level of theory. Lina spent years as a People Manager at Amazon Logistics actually doing it, and her workshop skips the intro to go straight into hands-on group work — leaving attendees with concrete solutions for keeping distributed teams engaged, developing skills, and retaining the people worth keeping.

Remote productivity is a systems problem, not a tools problem. Lauri shows how single-source-of-truth documentation and async-first rituals outperform on speed and onboarding — and how to implement them practically inside Notion.

The technical infrastructure of remote work is solved — the competency gap is the problem nobody has mapped clearly enough to act on. Maya's workshop runs participants through a live Remote Readiness assessment across her 5Cs framework (Culture, Communication, Console, Collaboration, and Connection), identifies where their gap is largest, and ends with a written action plan tied directly into a real remote job search strategy.

Most people start their remote work journey in the wrong place. Drawing from her own experience making this transition twice, Jess walks you through a practical roadmap for moving into location-independent work — intentionally, and without blowing up the career you've built.

Remote work didn't kill your culture — it just exposed whether you ever had one. Mike breaks down what remote-native companies actually do differently: the invisible habits that build trust across time zones, and how to stop mistaking proximity for cohesion.

The way knowledge workers present themselves is shifting fast — from CV to portfolio, from solo expertise to collaborative ecosystems, from static credentials to AI-augmented networks. In this workshop, Olga explores why the traditional CV is losing relevance and how dynamic portfolios combining real-world experience, measurable results, and digital tooling are becoming the new standard. We'll look at why networked, collaborative expertise is outpacing the solo model in the AI era, and how you can build an adaptive professional identity that drives both innovation and long-term career growth.

This hands-on workshop covers what it actually takes to run a freelance business from anywhere in the world — not just the tech setup, but the legal and financial structure behind it. We'll walk through the difference between remote employment and true freelancing, how flag theory can make your setup tax-efficient and compliant for your clients, and what you need to send invoices across borders without headaches. We'll also briefly touch on international health insurance coverage.

Hendrik Ojamaa, CEO & Co-Founder of jungler.ai, started posting on LinkedIn in 2026 and has since accumulated over 5.5 million impressions — making it one of his startup's primary growth channels. In this workshop, he'll share a practical approach to building a content strategy that gets you noticed, builds credibility, and turns your LinkedIn presence into real demand for what you offer.
