Construction of a park for Chinese companies in Oeiras starts this year
In March, in an interview with the Lusa news agency, the Chinese ambassador to Portugal, Zhao Bentang, had already considered that the involvement of a Chinese company in the Oeiras project could attract “investment from Chinese companies in the area of new energies”.
Construction of the Oeiras business park will begin at the end of the year and should mainly welcome Chinese companies, according to the president of the Oeiras Valley Investment Agency (OVIA), who also announced new collaborations between the two countries.
“A business and housing park of 18 buildings is going to start being built at the end of this year in Oeiras, in the municipality of Oeiras, in a partnership between the largest Chinese construction company, called China Construction, and Teixeira Duarte. And in principle, when this park is finished, which will probably take two or three years, it will be mainly to welcome Chinese companies that want to come here,” said António Martins da Cruz.
On the sidelines of a conference on the 45th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Portugal and the 25th anniversary of Macau’s return to China, in Lisbon, the official also said that after a business mission to China at the end of March, organized by OVIA, “a Shenzhen company has already signed a collaboration protocol with a Portuguese company specializing in digitalization”.
Contacts are set to continue, with a business mission from the Guangdong and Macau Deepened Cooperation Zone due to visit, while in October Portuguese entrepreneurs are due to return with a focus on collaboration between technology parks in Oeiras and Hengqin Island (formerly known as Mountain Island).
