Voting is open for the Técnico Alumni Award – Young Entrepreneur 2025

The Técnico community is invited to vote until 15 May to choose the winner from five alumni nominees.

Voting for the Técnico Alumni Award – Young Entrepreneur 2025 takes place until 15 May. Through a public vote, the initiative aims to honour one of the five nominated alumni aged 35 or under, whose career has stood out for innovation, project leadership, or the development of solutions with an impact on the market.

Created to recognise paths of excellence, the Técnico Alumni Award includes two categories each year: the Career Award, given to alumni with more than 20 years of professional experience, and the Young Entrepreneur Award, aimed at alumni at the start of their careers who have shown outstanding value creation in business or technological initiatives. The winner of the Career category will be chosen by the award jury. The finalists in the latter category are subject to a public vote.

The Técnico Young Entrepreneur Award finalists are:

Francisco João Lopes | Sonant AI, LINK Agency e Portal de Sabedoria
Joana Pinto | Clynx Health
Maria Vilar | Immersiv
Nuno Pereira | Paynest
Vicente Garção | Lampsy Health

Voting is open until 15 May, via the Técnico Alumni platform.

The award ceremony will take place at the Técnico Alumni Gala 2025, to be held on 23 May at 7 p.m., in the Great Hall of Técnico – Alameda campus, as part of the “Dia do Técnico”, which celebrates the school’s 114th anniversary. The Alumni Gala is open to the entire community, subject to prior registration using this form.
