The opening remarks from Carlos Oliveira, InvestBraga President, and FLAD Board Member Jorge Gabriel, were pretty much focused on results achieved since 2014, when Startup Braga begun this path of supporting startups, and the ambitious goals for this edition.

More than 65 startups, gathering more than 190 entrepreneurs, have been supported by Startup Braga. In the last years, together they were able to raise more than 6 million euros of investment.
