In order to volunteer, you must be 18 years old or older. All volunteers must bring ID with them in order to collect their accreditation. Any person under the age of 18 will not be granted access to the program or the event.
Unfortunately, we cannot assist you with obtaining a visa to come to Portugal, nor can we send you an invitation letter. That decision is entirely up to the government of Portugal.
First, let us know of your interest in the volunteer program, here: https://uae.unicornsummit.net/volunteers.
In the weeks leading up to the event, you will receive an email asking if you are still interested in the volunteer program. You will need to fill out a form to confirm your application.

Once you confirm your availability for those shifts, your Unicorn Summit volunteer position is secured. You will then receive the final information about your roles, including logistics for the event.
