What was Startup Pirates Lisboa?
Startup Pirates Lisboa is an acceleration program for
entrepreneurs “in the making”. During 8 days in Lisbon
anyone with a strong entrepreneurial spirit is very welcome!
It’s an experience where participants have
the opportunity to pitch an idea and access the tools to
develop it into a business until the final presentation in front
of a fantastic jury panel.
During the week of 1st to the 8th of september, our pirates
had the opportunity to participate in workshops and talks
about relevant topics, such as team building, strategic
marketing, design thinking, business model canvas, personal
branding, finance and pitch; speak one-to-one with
experienced entrepreneurs, mentors and so much more…

5
Startup Pirates was developed to draw people away from their
comfort zone and make them think outside the box.
Our goal was being an incentive to boost entrepreneurship and
creativity.
This week was all about critical thinking, learning, creativity and
making things happen.

The Almighty Captains Mantra
Ana Claudia Davis Gouveia João RemondesHugo Tavares
Lina Figueira Miguel Ferreira
Rui Gil
1) Work with great people and you will end
with great results.
2) Be true to yourself, to your team and to
your project;
3) Don't loose the humbleness between the
success;
4) Be open to learn new things, if you don't
learn anything in the process you have just
wasted your time.
5) Treat well your partners and include them
in the event.
6) Have fun! If you aren't just leave the
project.
7) Try always, however impossible it may
seem, “no” is guaranteed.
8) Be focus but not to the point you can't
embrace the moment.
9) Do not postpone a decision, as difficult as
it may seem.
10) It is what it is!

What went well during the event?
Opinions
I think everything was awesome. Congratulations, everybody loved the event!
Amazing organization, great opportunity to meet lots of interesting people.
I honestly think everything was fantastic, the crew did an amazing job making sure
everything ran smoothly and everyone was well accommodated. The workshops and talks
taught me a lot and were truly "life changing". I wish the mentor talks were longer but we
can't stretch time!
I think that was a 5 star event! It was a life change experience at highest level!
Overall the event went well, workshops were very educative, some mentors provided great
feedback some didn't. The talks had amazing people and were really inspiring.
Everything was perfect. The organization was cohesive and are to be congratulated.
The food (SOOOOO GOOD!), the speakers, the crew! (the amazing crew!), come on guys,
it was really amazing and unforgettable!
Team was amazing, food was amazing and the workshops in general were very good. 31
