Mentoring Breakfast

This year, XR4REHAB offers two dedicated Mentoring Breakfasts, providing tailored opportunities for participants at different stages of their professional journey. Both sessions are designed to foster meaningful connections, open discussion, and knowledge exchange in an informal setting.

Student & Early Career Researcher Mentoring Breakfast

An engaging opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students, PhD candidates, and postdoctoral researchers to interact with experienced researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals. Participants will engage in small-group discussions and can ask questions on topics such as research careers, publishing, grant writing, productivity, work-life balance, networking, and career development. Groups of mentees will be paired with two mentors from different backgrounds and areas of expertise within virtual rehabilitation.

Practitioner Mentoring Breakfast

Designed for clinicians, therapists, rehabilitation professionals, innovators, and other practitioners working with or interested in XR technologies, this breakfast offers the opportunity to connect with experienced peers, researchers, and industry experts. Discussions may focus on topics such as implementing XR in clinical practice, overcoming adoption barriers, evaluating impact, building innovation projects, leadership, collaboration with researchers and technology developers, and professional growth. Participants will join small groups led by mentors with complementary expertise in rehabilitation, healthcare innovation, and XR.

Participation in both mentoring breakfasts is free of charge as an add-on to your conference registration. Places are limited, so early registration is recommended.

Conference Dinner

For the XR4REHAB Conference dinner, we are delighted to gather at 7 Portes, one of Barcelona’s most iconic and historic restaurants. Located near Port Vell, 7 Portes has been a landmark of the city’s cultural and social life for nearly two centuries, welcoming generations of Barcelonians as well as renowned artists, writers, and intellectuals. The restaurant is celebrated for its authentic Catalan and Mediterranean cuisine, combining local, high-quality ingredients with select influences from international gastronomy. With its rich heritage, warm atmosphere, and enduring reputation for culinary excellence, 7 Portes offers a uniquely Barcelona setting for an enjoyable evening of networking, conversation, and fine dining.

Dinner takes place at the end of the first conference day, Thursday, 10 June 2027, from 19:30 till approx. 22:30. You can add dinner as an extra option to your registration.

About Barcelona

Barcelona is more than a world-renowned destination; it is one of Europe’s most dynamic hubs for innovation, creativity, and immersive technology. The city combines a thriving digital economy, a strong creative sector, and a collaborative startup ecosystem, making it an ideal setting for XR4REHAB.

At the heart of Barcelona’s innovation landscape is a growing extended reality (XR) ecosystem. The recently launched Barcelona XRLAB serves as a dedicated hub for XR technologies, bringing together startups, researchers, creative professionals, and industry partners to develop the next generation of immersive solutions. The city actively supports innovation through public-private partnerships and specialized facilities designed to accelerate experimentation and entrepreneurship.

Barcelona is equally recognized for its vibrant creative industries. Design, audiovisual media, gaming, digital content creation, and cultural innovation form an important part of the local economy, creating fertile ground for XR applications in healthcare, education, rehabilitation, and human-centered technology.

For XR4REHAB participants, Barcelona offers the perfect environment to explore how immersive technologies are transforming rehabilitation and healthcare. Here, cutting-edge technology meets creativity, research meets entrepreneurship, and innovation meets real-world impact.

Join us in Barcelona and experience the future of XR-enabled rehabilitation in one of Europe’s most inspiring innovation cities.
