Development of this new business started in 2012 and took more than 5 years to be accomplished.Executing this project and experiencing the challenges during those though years, made Porteghal founders' experts in biotech commercialization and motivated them to start a venture to support entrepreneurs through their innovation journey with an accelerated, supported and mentored approach.
