S2E5 - Carl Munson from Good Morning Portugal

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2421128/open_sms] What happens when two entrepreneurs sit down to talk about Portugal? In this episode of Made in Portugal, I’m joined by Carl Munson for a relaxed conversation about business, life, and the curious realities of living and working in Portugal. From the opportunities that attract international entrepreneurs to the quirks of Portuguese bureaucracy, we explore what it actually takes to build something here. Expect honest insights, a few laughs, and the kind of observations you usually only hear after someone has lived here for a while. If you're an entrepreneur, investor, or expat curious about Portugal, this episode gives you a glimpse behind the scenes of what doing business here is really like. And yes… we may also touch on the art of navigating Portuguese systems with patience, humour, and a good coffee.
