Proportione has been operating from Aveiro for two years — quietly, in observation mode. This episode is the public launch from that period: why the Iberian operational base ended up here and not in Lisbon, Porto, or Madrid.
Listen to the episode
Four themes
The Aveiro thesis. Technical university + TICE.PT cluster + AIDA industrial density — a combination that does not exist in any other Iberian city of the same size.
Why Portugal and not Spain. Where some see saturation, others see enthusiasm for innovation that no longer circulates on this side of the border.
The next six months. Concrete commitments: formal integration into the ecosystem (TICE.PT, UA Incubator, AIDA), publication in pt-PT, build a pipeline according to the rule «know first, then contact».
Invitation. Anyone working in industry, clusters, universities, or public administration with a digital agenda — open door for a coffee.
