7th Acceleration Programme of StartUp Portimão

Under the theme "If it's to grow, accelerate!", StartUp Portimão challenges entrepreneurs to take the next step in developing their businesses and to seize this opportunity to turn ideas and ambitions into results.

StartUp Portimão returns with the 7th edition of its Acceleration Programme, aimed at supporting entrepreneurs in developing their businesses. The programme promotes innovation, business growth, and the dynamisation of the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the Algarve.

This event spans four days of intensive training, practical activities, experience sharing, and mentoring, aimed at entrepreneurs looking to develop their projects, enhance their skills, and identify new growth opportunities.

The programme will take place in a hybrid format, with an initial online phase on 2nd and 3rd November, followed by an in-person phase in Portimão on 24th and 25th November.

Through training sessions, inspiring talks, networking opportunities, and contact with mentors and specialists in key areas for business development, participants will have the chance to deepen their knowledge, refine their business models, and acquire essential tools to face market challenges.

In addition to empowering entrepreneurs, this initiative aims to foster the creation of new connections between projects, companies, and agents of the innovation ecosystem, contributing to economic development and establishing the Algarve as an entrepreneurial territory.

After six editions, StartUp Portimão is once again focusing on a programme that places entrepreneurs at the centre of the action, valuing learning, collaboration, and contact with experienced professionals in an environment conducive to knowledge sharing and opportunity creation.

Applications are open until 28 October via the website www.startupportimao.pt.
