SUMMARY:Upside Club • Private Lunch #13
DESCRIPTION:​Upside Club is a private community of the most ambitious founders and CEOs in Portugal. We exist to help founders connect\, grow\, and succeed together. \nThis lunch is held in a specific format: a private room and each person speaks at a time\, with a set of break the ice questions everyone needs to answer. We’ve organized 12 private lunches so far. This will be the 13th! \nLimited Seats: 12\nLanguage: 🇵🇹 Portuguese \nThe invited founders belong to a new generation that doesn’t believe that the “secret is the soul of the business” but the opposite. They all see sharing their learnings\, experiences\, and vulnerabilities in the open as a growth mechanism. \nYou can expect a wide range of stages in terms of entrepreneurial experience or company size. The vision is that someone who’s just starting can learn something from someone who runs a €10M+ business and vice-versa. \n  \nOrganiser: \nUpside Club \n

SUMMARY:Hangout #56 | On the ROAD 2 WEB SUMMIT
DESCRIPTION:​Four days\, tens of thousands of people\, and thousands of startups competing for the same attention. For Portuguese founders\, WEB SUMMIT can be the week that changes the year\, or the week that flies by. More often than not\, the difference is made before the doors open. \n​In this Hangout\, we’ll look at what it takes to make Web Summit count: how to prepare with intent\, how to tell your story when you only get a few minutes\, and how to turn conversations into results long after the event ends. The goal is simple: that every startup walks into Web Summit knowing exactly why it’s there.

SUMMARY:COREangels Porto | Workshop & Pre-Selection Committee
DESCRIPTION:Years spent building teams\, scaling operations\, and making commercial decisions in established industries are incredibly valuable to early-stage founders. \nYet\, most executives and senior operators never cross the bridge into angel investing because the process feels unclear or distant. \nOn October 29th\, COREangels Porto is hosting an evening at FEP Faculdade de Economia e Gestão da Universidade do Porto designed to demystify how startup investment actually works. \nThe session is split into two complementary parts:\n➡️ How to Become a Startup Investor (Workshop): A practical discussion on how operators and business leaders translate industry experience\, capital\, and network into structured startup investments.\n➡️ Pre-Selection Committee (Live Session): A behind-the-scenes look at how our members evaluate early-stage companies before they reach our primary Investment Committee. You will see how founders present\, how angels assess potential\, and how key questions are framed. \nIf you are considering angel investing\, this session offers a grounded\, unfiltered view into the process. \nEvent Details:\n📍Location: FEP – Faculdade de Economia da Universidade do Porto\n📅Date: Thursday\, 29 October 2026 \n🔗 If you want to participate – reach out to COREangels Porto. \nSeats are limited to maintain an interactive discussion.
