Fernando Vasco Costa
CEOVIZTA
Portugal
After a degree in Architecture in 1996 and some years of experience in the development and management of large projects, I decided to turn myself to Real Estate Management in 2005, believing that working in the development of RE projects I can add more value on them. After experiences at Nexity, The Edge Group and JLL, in May 2018 I've been invited to restart Nexity Portugal as Mananging Director. I believe that experience, innovation, creativity and research are crucial to create the best projects in the market, the ones that are stronger on the downturns, that attract more clients, and therefore create more value to their investors.
