FAQ  

Why is there no lunch included this year?

Yes, let’s talk about that. Always start with the most important questions, right? Lunch used to be included in prize of the ticket in the past, but this year it won’t be. That allows us to set admission price much lower. Don’t panic yet, though. We’ll have food trucks by Dish and Chefparade parked nearby, as well as the Sushiqueen and Bistrouska stands. Plus great coffee from Doubleshot and maybe a couple more surprises in nearby restaurants. And those who can’t be really bothered with food, can fully focus their attention on the programme. Everyone can simply do whatever they feel like at any given moment.

Why is the ticket almost half the price than last year?

Of course, nobody ever asks this question. But we wanted to put it in here, just to amuse ourselves. There’s a couple reasons why the tickets are cheaper this year. First of all, we saved a fortune on catering. And we wanted to make WebExpo more affordable to even more visitors so that not just people from corporations could attend.

Why seven different venues?

We wanted to give WebExpo this year a different kind of atmosphere. WebExpo should be an event where a large part of the internet community from all over Central Europe meets. We do not organize the conference only so a couple hundred pros can share their knowledge and expand their horizons. We would like to create a space for inspiring conversations, meetings, cooperation and friendship. Therefore, we have divided WebExpo into several venues which will be adapted for different purposes. In some places we will attend workshops, in others we will talk and still somewhere else we will just meet over coffee. Moreover, we have conveyed an advanced study and found that a three-minute walk never ever kill anyone.

What are the differences between venues?

We have not picked seven various places by accident. Venues differ from each other. But not by topic, as you might expect.

Lucerna will be host to the “big heavy keynote presentations” International speakers will be interpreted, so do not be afraid to attend even if your English is far from perfect.

In Světozor, we’ll have a lot of panel discussions and controversial topics will be handled.

Bez Zábradlí Theatre will host hands-on lectures and workshops.

In Česká Spořitelna and Cevro Institute, we will address topics in smaller groups (in WebExpo lore that means up to 100 visitors).

Era svět will be a resting area where you will find courses by Naučmese (Let‘sLearn) and a spot to sit down with great coffee.

Wayra will host the Startup Stage on Wenceslas Square (Václavském náměstí).

I heard something about board of experts, what is it?

It’s humans. That’s very important to point out. They are the most experienced pros we have found in their respective fields and they put their expertise to good use in supervising the respective parts of the programme. They helped us chose the speakers for individual topics, worked on their talks with them and so are not only responsible for the quality of their part of the programme, but also the individual speaker’s presentations.

Will everything be in English again this year?

At least half of the presentations will be held in Czech and, in addition, the keynote speakers at Lucerna will be interpreted into Czech. Nothing to worry about.

How am I supposed to navigate the programme? There’s so much going on!

Yes, the programme is really rich. Nevertheless, we will help you to compile your very own selection. If you get stuck in selecting what to attend or some presentations you deem crucial to you overlap, let us know. You can also find tips about inspiring presentations, courses, panels and workshops on our Facebook page and Twitter.

If I can’t attend, is there any chance to watch presentations later online?

We will record all the presentations, so you should be able to watch it later.

Can I get a discount?

We offer a group discount. If you attend as a group of 4 or more people, you will receive a 20% discount. That’s something, isn’t it?

Will you help me find accommodation, since I’m not from Prague?

Unfortunately, we cannot arrange accommodation for you, but we’d love to recommend you a hostel we have good experience with: Mozaic House Hostel. It’s where our speakers will be staying as well. It’s right next to the Charles Square (Karlovo náměstí) and it‘s very affordable.

What about parties? Will there be any?

We thought this would be your first question. Yes, there will be parties – we’ll do both, a Warm-up party and also an After party. Soon you’ll learn more about them on our website. Meanwhile, book Friday and Sunday evenings in your calendar.
