The advocacy work 351 does at government level has made a real difference. We finally have a voice that represents founders in the policy conversation.
Founder & CEO
As an investor, 351 gives me direct access to Portugal’s most promising founders before anyone else. The quality of deal flow has been exceptional.
Investor & Partner
351 connected me to the right investors and mentors at exactly the right moment. The community is genuinely unlike anything else in the Portuguese ecosystem.
