Lisbon's Unicorn Factory Scaling Up enters its 5th edition

Eight companies are now joining Unicorn Factory to "follow in the footsteps of the 40 scaleups" that have already been supported and "which have contributed to the creation of around 1,300 jobs", said Carlos Moedas at the presentation of another edition of Unicorn Factory Lisbon's Scale Up.

On the occasion, diplomas were also handed out to the participants of the 3rd edition.

The program is aimed at technologicalscaleups that have already obtained relevant funding, with a product or service launched and generating revenue, a team in place, and a clear growth path.
