Read MoreToday we bring slightly different content. The truth is we listened to this podcast and immediately wanted to share it with you. In this week's The Guardian's Audio Long Reads, the theme discussed is the anticipation of the financial crisis, carried out this time by big technology companies, rather than banks, as we saw happen previously. And why is that? Because, as before, some of these companies try to escape or avoid some rules and regulations. 👓 We guarantee that it’s worth listening to!

Read MoreSob o mote Eat, Pitch & Love, passámos ontem o dia na Casa do Impacto rodeados de amigos, parceiros e família ❤ para o Demo Day. Foram mais de 25 empreendedores que subiram ao palco para fazer o pitch das suas startups e, entre as nossas e as da Casa do Impacto, enchemos a Sala da Bica de espírito empreendedor e animação! E durante o intervalo? Quem não reparou que a sala ficava ao rubro com jornalistas, empreendedores e investidores em puro networking? É mesmo isto!
Read MorePodemos falar e discutir sobre qual é a nossa iniciativa preferida mas a verdade é que tudo e todas se resumem a este dia. É no Demo Day que mostramos tudo o que é feito dentro da Startup Lisboa e das suas startups incubadas.
O nosso Eat, Pitch & Love, que acontece de dois em dois anos, regressa no próximo dia 30 de maio para juntarmos todas as caras da nossa comunidade, incluindo (wait for it...) investidores, parceiros, colaboradores, patrocinadores, jornalistas, empreendedores e amigos. Todos, mesmo!
A Valerie Konde é empreendedora por natureza mas só se lançou com o seu projeto há poucos anos. Antes disso, trabalhou na Google como sales manager e passou também pela Societe Generale e pela Rocket Internet, em África e no Médio Oriente.
Em 2015 despediu-se da gigante informática para seguir a sua paixão (e é mesmo assim que nós gostamos, não é?): tornar a arte contemporânea mais acessível e user-friendly para as pessoas, levando-a aos ecrãs dos seus telemóveis. A Collectionair é uma plataforma que liga colecionadores, curadores e artistas, com obras de arte com valores até $5000.
Decorem bem esta cara pois, a partir de agora, será uma presença constante pelos corredores da Rua da Prata 😉
