On June 19th, 2024, Mercan Group, in collaboration with the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce, launched the inaugural event of the new Portugal Investor Forum series in central London, UK.
These exclusive, invitation-only gatherings are specifically designed for private client professionals who advise family offices and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) on global business investments and tax affairs. The event featured a comprehensive exploration of the legal aspects of Portugal’s Golden Visa program and the available investment fund options.
The Forum delves into various aspects of investing in Portugal, with each event crafted to provide detailed insights into profitable investment opportunities and to enhance economic ties between the UK and Portugal.
Topics at the Forum include lesser-known facets of Portugal’s tax system that facilitate international tax planning, a broad array of investment funds that pave the way to Portugal’s renowned Golden Visa ‘residency by investment’ program, and expert advice for UK-based ‘non-doms’ on why they should consider Portugal for their future plans.

What’s Next?
The next Portugal Investor Forum will be held in central London in September 2024. Future forums will offer attendees opportunities to:
Gain valuable insights into the financial landscape of the Portuguese market, highlighting its intrinsic value and numerous investment opportunities.
Explore various investment sectors in Portugal, including venture capital, real estate, private equity, and hedge funds.
Stay informed about the latest investment trends and learn why Portugal is an ideal location for investment.
The Portugal Investor Forum events are closely aligned with the Chamber’s well-known “Moving to Portugal” Shows and Seminars, which regularly take place in the UK and Ireland. These events introduce UK buyers to Portugal’s diverse property market and provide essential advice on relocation, tax, finance, and visas.
