Where California and Portugal come together
About RedBridge Lisbon
RedBridge is a cross-border California-Portugal entrepreneur's club founded by Jonathan Littman, Hugo Antonelo, Paulo Gaspar, Filipa Pinto de Carvalho, and Nathan Hadlock at our Palácio on Rua Vitor Cordon in Lisbon. We’re a diverse, highly motivated group of international innovators, founders, technologists, writers, artists, and creators who recognize the growing power of these elemental Portugal-California connections. We recognize something remarkable is happening in Portugal. We want to help shape it. What brings us together? Because our similarities and common bonds matter: our red bridges, seven glorious hills, whimsical cable cars, passion for wine and food, rugged coastlines, the ocean, and most of all our natural affinity and warmth for one another, and intense desire to create. These forces, and our common purpose, build trust. Bind us closer. RedBridge is a social club that aims to promote the highest level of entrepreneurship and innovation. In the Spring of 2022, we began hosting regular, inspiring events and leisurely dinners in Lisboa and SF to open your mind, and spark partnerships and truly remarkable projects and endeavors. We've led ten events, including Why Californians Love Portugal at Shack15. Portugal has become a prized tech hub and Europe’s top tourist destination. Californians are the number one group moving to Portugal. This enchanting country of just 10 million has done so many things right – including new laws recently passed to protect remote workers. The world’s 4th safest country, Portugal offers an unrivaled quality of life and was recently crowned the world’s friendliest country (Lisbon is the happiest city). With the rise of remote work and the potential to set up shop anywhere, many talented people and companies are quite simply saying why not? Welcome to RedBridge.
