Subject: Report on Lumos conference

Dear Jonas,

Thanks for making it possible for me to go to the Lumos conference in London last week. As you know, it is the biggest technology conference in the country and very important to our work.

I learned a lot and I've made some new contacts that will be good for our company. I think we should try to attend the 'Innovation Day' in April as well.

I focused on talks about robotics, as that is our most interesting area at the moment. The presentations on robot 'hands' and robots for hospitals were particularly interesting for us. I'm attaching a detailed report on this new research with some suggestions about how we can use it.

Thanks again for this opportunity. I'm happy to discuss the report further if you're interested.

Best regards,
Nina

Dear, Mr. Anderson Silva

I would like to share my experience working as a intern on restaurant La Pergoletta, which was planned and designed for the month of March '23. I had the opportunity to work in the reception area for attendees, assisting with the foods, information, and guidance about the intern, as well as answering pending questions about the event.

Personally, this experience was greatly enriching, as it helped me improve and enhance my communication skills. It was also rewarding to interact with people who went through truly difficult situations and remained strong. Having contact with these attendees and dealing with their various experiences strengthened me not only emotionally, but also provided me with excellent experience in public service, but unfortunately i had to resign my contract because i needed to study and help my dad.

I am truly excited about this experience, and I am sure that I will be able to extract positive outcomes from it, both academically and personally.

I am available should you wish to learn more about my experiences, there are many, some good and some bad!

Best regards,
