After a Law degree and some experience, I’ve led Fundão’s Innovation Strategy, winning the RegioStars Award. I manage teams & projects in EU/national programs.
am passionate about territorial innovation, economic development, and public policy, working to bridge the gap between urban and rural innovation. With a background in Law, I transitioned into the public sector to contribute to the transformation of my city, Fundão, where I have been leading Fundão’s Innovation Strategy, recognized with the 2018 RegioStars Award by the European Commission.
Over the years, I have managed and participated in dozens of European and national projects across programs like Horizon Europe, Interreg, and Urbact, focusing on Smart Cities, AgriTech, Circular Economy, and Talent Attraction. I have worked with and led multidisciplinary teams, fostering collaboration between startups, policymakers, and international networks to ensure that smaller communities are not left behind in the digital and green transitions.
My mission is to create sustainable, inclusive, and innovation-driven ecosystems where people and businesses can thrive, proving that small cities can lead big changes.
