INNOVATEā„¢ Oeiras

Oeiras has been a desirable place to live and explore since 1208. Its natural beauty and agreeable seaside climate remain, and today, the municipality boasts the highest GDP per capita in Portugal, not to mention the country’s highest concentration of individuals with higher education. Winning though they may be, these statistics do little to illuminate the innovation ecosystem in this coastal gem. That’s where INNOVATEā„¢ Oeiras comes in. This premium tech-enabled coffee-table book highlights innovators of all industries and niches. Participants are researched and handpicked for inclusion in INNOVATEā„¢ Oeiras, which ensures an accurate depiction of the municipality that’s been making history since its inception. 

In addition to a hardcover coffee-table book, INNOVATEā„¢ Oeiras is published as an e-book, take a look at the individual stories of innovators and innovation enablers below.Ā
