The Information, Medium & Society: International Conference on Publishing Studies is pleased to offer the Conference Dinner at Casa do Alentejo
Located in a majestic XVII-century palace, Casa do Alentejo is much more than a restaurant: it is a journey through the history and tradition of the Alentejo. Formerly an aristocratic palace and later the elegant Majestic Club, this building combines architectural beauty with the warmth of Alentejo culture.
Today, it is a living space that celebrates the roots and spirit of a unique region, hosting cultural events, exhibitions, recitals, and, of course, authentic cuisine that pays tribute to the flavors of southern Portugal.
Dinner will begin with a traditional Portuguese “couvert” (bread, olives, regional cheese, and cold cuts). From the selected menu, guests will enjoy:

Join other delegates for a pre-conference welcome reception and training session.
We are excited to announce the online conference will be delivered on the CGScholar platform – developed by the Common Ground Media Lab, the research and technology arm of Common Ground Research Networks.
This special event will walk you through the CGScholar Event Mircosite so you have a rich online experience by learning how to comment and participate online. It will also teach delegates how to update their profile and Presenter Pages in order to add digital media: video, sound, other files.
Talking Circles are a distinctive feature of our in-person conference, and this year we are also taking them online. Talking Circles offer an opportunity to meet other delegates face-to-face, and engage in extended discussion about the issues and concerns they feel are of utmost importance to that segment of the Research Network. Participation is open, encouraged, and supported.
