Why Portugal

Portugal is Europe’s oldest country having the same borders. It was founded in 1143 and has had its current borders since 1249. Portugal is a country with a beautiful and diverse scenery, a mild climate (3,000 hours of sunshine per year in Lisbon) and a rich cultural heritage that includes more than 5 centuries of close relationships with peoples all over the World, including Asia, Africa and the Americas.


Portugal has a highly educated population, half of whom can speak at least one foreign language (mainly English), and a centuries-old tradition of welcoming foreigners. It is a democracy, a free market economy, a member of the European Union and of the Schengen Space (26 European countries), and a potential gateway to a market of about 250m people in the Portuguese speaking countries and communities.
