PragaTech PT — Tech-Enabled Pest Control Service with IoT Monitoring

CasaAdapta PT — Home Accessibility Adaptation Service for Aging Population
Portugal is one of Europe's most rapidly aging countries. The aging index hit 192.4 elderly per 100 youth in 2024 — and it's accelerating. Over 2.5 million people are aged 65+, and 55.8% report limitations in daily activities due to health problems.
KitchenHub Porto — Dark Kitchen & Shared Kitchen Operator for Porto
Lisbon has WEAT, ProKitchens, CityChefs, Hey!Kitchen, NOW Kitchens. Porto has... almost nothing.

SolarPT — Residential Solar Panel Installation & Maintenance Service
Portugal is racing to hit 20.8 GW of solar PV by 2030 — more than triple its current capacity.

BoulderPT — Urban Bouldering Gym for Portuguese Secondary Cities
Portugal's bouldering scene is concentrated in Lisbon and Porto. Cities like Braga (200K), Coimbra (140K), Aveiro (80K), and Faro (70K) have virtually zero dedicated bouldering facilities.

AutoLava PT — Subscription-Based Express Car Wash Network
Portugal tem 6 milhões de veículos ligeiros de passageiros — a frota mais envelhecida da Europa Ocidental, com idade média de 14.1 anos. Carros mais velhos precisam de mais cuidado.

FunZone PT — Modern Indoor Playground & Family Entertainment Center
Portugal tem ~1.5 milhões de crianças com menos de 12 anos. Aos fins-de-semana e feriados, pais enfrentam o mesmo dilema: "O que fazer com os miúdos?"

TorraPT — Specialty Coffee Micro-Roastery with Tasting Room & B2B Supply
Portugal é o 5º país da Europa que mais café consome per capita. Mas 90%+ do café servido é industrial — Delta, Sical, Nicola — torrado escuro, amargo, e indistinguível. A "bica" portuguesa é um ritual sagrado mas a qualidade estacionou nos anos 80.
