On this interview with ECO, I shared my perspective on how we can strengthen Portugal’s venture capital ecosystem. A key takeaway? Collaboration is essential. To build a sustainable and globally competitive industry, we need greater participation from institutional private capital. This is not just about funding, it’s about creating opportunities to drive innovation, foster entrepreneurship, and fuel economic growth. Partnerships between public and private sectors, aligned with international best practices, will ensure that capital flows efficiently to companies, unlocking their potential and scaling their impact. The future of venture capital in Portugal is bright, but it requires ambition, resilience, and collective effort. Together, we can position our country as a leader in the global innovation landscape.
