My experience at Build Up was very positive, especially in the Mentoring Program. I really enjoyed the conversations with my mentor, where we had very enriching exchanges of ideas and which gave me important moments of reflection, both professionally and personally. This program had a very positive impact on me and also allowed me to meet someone who is now part of my personal network, which is undoubtedly a great asset.

Márcio Lopes, Digital Project Manager & Lead Designer @ Vodafone

I took part in the networking dinner and found it a great opportunity to meet people from other NOVA courses, as well as professionals from different companies. It was a valuable experience to understand the perspectives of various sectors, the different needs of the market and to learn from different life and career experiences. It was also a personal challenge that helped me get out of my comfort zone, reminding me of the importance of relating to others and making ourselves known.
