The MOSTLY AI Data (in the) Peaks are all about reaching new heights and exploring fresh ideas. For a few days, we’ll break away from our usual routines - leaving behind our home offices and multiple screens - to meet in person, get creative, and collaborate amidst the Austrian peaks.

Plus, this offsite marks a significant milestone: it’s the first time we’ll gather face-to-face since the thrilling decision to open source our code. 💥 It’s a perfect opportunity to brainstorm, share knowledge, and envision new possibilities for our future.

We encourage all Mostlies to dive into discussions, contribute bold ideas, and build strategies together. This is our chance to think openly, innovate, and push boundaries together. #WinAsATeam

And of course, after all that brainpower, we’ll unwind and enjoy the snowy peaks together because we believe in balancing hard work with play. 🏔️ ⛷️ 🥾

Please register for the event HERE by Friday, 29 Nov 2024.

Getting around in Vienna

 

From the airport to the hotel in Vienna

 

The ÖBB train directly connects Vienna Airport to Wien Hauptbahnhof, departing every 30 minutes from the airport train station. Tickets cost €4.40 and the average travel time is 15 minutes.

From Wien Hauptbahnhof to Motel One is a 5min walk.

⚠️ Taxis from/to the airport are only reimbursable in rare situations such as:

  • early flights - if your departure flight from Vienna is before 7h

  • late flights - if you arrive at Vienna after 23h

We will travel together by train. The tickets will be purchased by the People team.


Emergency contacts

  • Please ensure to update your emergency contact in Personio-

  • It can be useful to provide family members with an emergency contact number, should they not be able to reach you during the offsite. Please provide them with the following contacts:

Elsa Mendes: +351 934 120 690 | Languages: Portuguese, English
Tristan Wohlfahrt: +43 664 54 59 658 | Languages: German, English


What to pack

  • Comfortable and weather-appropriate clothing (waterproof gear recommended).
  • Equipment, if you prefer to bring your own. Otherwise, rentals will be available.
  • Good vibes!

FAQs

  • Can I get in sooner? Can I stay longer?

Yes, but any extra accommodation or expenses outside of official offsite days will be at your own cost.

  • Can I fly from a location and go back to a different one?

The default is a round trip from your place of residence, but if necessary, you may fly to/from different locations, as long as it aligns with the cost of the default route.

  • Can I bring a partner, friend, or child?

Consider that this is a company event for us to foster connection between our team. If you go and spend time with your partner / friend / child, it defeats the purpose.

The People team is not the offsite police, but we trust you will understand and adhere.


See you there! 👋
