On May 14, OVIA met with Well Link Bank, a prestigious financial institution based in Macau, to explore possibilities for institutional and economic cooperation.
Tiago Sousa Dias, Secretary-General of the Investment Agency, and João Rato, representative of Well Link Bank, attended the meeting during which the possibility of establishing a formal partnership that could serve as a basis for future joint actions was discussed.
This dialogue comes at a particularly relevant time, in a context of growing rapprochement between Portugal, Macau, and the Greater Bay Area, and represents another strategic step by OVIA in promoting international investment and creating economic and financial bridges between Oeiras and emerging asian markets.
At the local level, this potential partnership could facilitate portuguese companies’ access to innovative financing channels and new internationalization opportunities. At the regional level, cooperation with a leading financial institution in Macau contributes to the affirmation of Oeiras as a dynamic and attractive hub for international business and, globally, reinforces Portugal’s position as a privileged point of connection between Europe and Asia, benefiting from unique historical, cultural, and economic ties with Macau.
OVIA will continue to promote strategic initiatives that consolidate the municipality of Oeiras as a territory of excellence for investment, innovation, and international cooperation.
