About the Company

SWITCH Conference was started back in 2010 by portuguese entrepreneur Ricardo Sousa and 3 others out of an high school project. SWITCH aimed to be one of the central places in Europe to discuss science, technology and entrepreneurship. It gathered multiple speakers from all around the world for 2 day events. It took place in 2010, 2011 and 2012 and

is regarded as one of the first entrepreneurial events in the country and one of the backbones for the widespread of entrepreneurship in the country when the theme was not hot.

TechCrunch mentioned SWITCH Conference as one of the top events in Europe, so did WIRED UK.
