Think-Tank Transferência de Tecnologia com João Afonso (Viana do Castelo)

A Câmara Municipal de Viana do Castelo, através do projeto Viana STARTS apresenta um programa anual de Workshops e Think-Tanks que promove processos de cocriação interdisciplinar no cruzamento entre a ciência, tecnologia e a arte, envolvendo a comunidade local, instituições de ensino, agentes culturais, setor empresarial e parceiros nacionais e internacionais. Os Workshops promovem a experimentação prática, a aprendizagem colaborativa e a prototipagem de soluções inovadoras, enquanto os Think-Tanks funcionam como espaços de diálogo, reflexão estratégica e construção coletiva de visões para o futuro do território. Este programa reforça a articulação entre atores locais, nacionais e internacionais, contribuindo para o posicionamento de Viana do Castelo como um território de experimentação e inovação científica, tecnológica, artística e criativa, alinhado com os princípios europeus do S+T+ARTS e do New European Bauhaus.

COREangels Porto Workshop: Product Metrics

17:00Porto

How do you know if a startup is really growing — or just looking busy? For founders and business angels, product metrics are one of the clearest ways to understand traction, engagement and the real potential of a business. Join us in Vila Nova de Gaia for a focused 45-minute workshop on the key product metrics every founder and investor should understand. We’ll explore what to measure, how to read the numbers, and which signals actually matter when evaluating a startup’s progress. Limited Seating: To keep the session interactive and practical, spots are limited. Reserve yours early and feel free to invite someone interested in startups, investment or product growth.
