All entrepreneurs, at a certain point of their lives, obsess about every piece of information that’s startup related. You know what I’m talking about… The first thing you probably do, once you get to a computer is check your email for cool content on startups, from First Round Review to Both Sides of the Table, it’s all there. Not to mention all the books on entrepreneurship you read before going to bed (yes, we’ve all read Peter Thiel’s “From Zero to One” and loved it).

However, in Portugal, we have very few people writing about startups and entrepreneurship that actually know what they’re talking about. We have some Portuguese blogs (and even less books), but very few talk about what having a startup is really like and tackle the main issues of the startup community.

So, when someone like Nuno Machado Lopes, the Head of Marketing and Communication at Beta-i, gets to the office one morning and lets everyone know that he’s publishing a book on entrepreneurship, we get all proud and excited.

Is excessive investment beneficial for startups? Does this obsession with unicorns and multi-millionaires help us build stronger startup ecosystems and more successful businesses? Is Silicon Valley replicable and should we really go for it?

These are the questions that Nuno Machado Lopes, who has been an entrepreneur for over 20 years and who has mentored hundreds of startups at Beta-i through Lisbon Challenge and Beta-start, addresses in his book called, “Tudo Mudou - Novamente”.

We can’t really wait to read it, as a matter of fact, and we’re looking forward to the official book launch tomorrow in Lisbon, at Silk, where Pedro Rocha Vieira, President at Beta-i, will also be there as a speaker.

Join us tomorrow, if you want to talk about what really matters when building startups. Make sure you register here.

See you tomorrow.
