ABOUT MIGUEL
Curiosity into companies.
Ideas into momentum.
MY STORY
Building from inside the industry.
Travel has been the constant. The way I contribute to it keeps evolving.
I have worked across distribution, airline content, agency networks, technology and payments — including five years as General Manager of Amadeus Portugal. That range taught me to look beyond individual products and understand how the full journey works for businesses and travellers.
As an entrepreneur, I have built ventures that give travel professionals more reach, more useful technology and new ways to serve their customers. As President of ANAV, I help bring the practical reality of Portuguese travel agencies into policy, regulation and the public conversation.
The common thread is simple: combine experience with imagination, surround a good idea with the right people, and keep moving.

HOW I WORK
A practical optimist,
with a builder’s bias.
Find the friction.
The most useful businesses often begin with a recurring industry problem that everyone has learned to tolerate.
Bring people together.
Scale is not only about size. It is about connecting expertise, influence and trust around a shared direction.
Make the idea real.
A strategy becomes interesting when it leaves the slide, meets the market and begins to create measurable progress.
LEARNING & EXPERIENCE
Still learning.
Always.

DUTY
Walk the city.
Look up.
Away from the boardroom, I follow cities on foot — architecture, churches, streets with stories and wines with a strong sense of place. Travel is still the best education I know.
