ISMS Financial Support
for Dependent Caregivers
ISMS is offering attendees of the 2026 ISMS Marketing Science Conference with dependent care responsibilities the opportunity to apply for up to $400 in financial support to help offset incremental expenses incurred for dependent care (humans) because of attending the conference.
Hotel Details
There will not be a dedicated conference hotel. Participants are encouraged to arrange their own accommodation, with many options available in both Lisbon and Cascais, each offering a wide range of quality and price points. Carcavelos also has several hotels and guesthouses within walking distance of the venue, which may be more convenient though generally more modest in standard. All three areas are well connected by train, making travel between them straightforward and reliable.
For convenience, you may visit our collaborating travel agency’s webpage here to view a curated list of recommended hotels and lodging options.
