Between 2020 and 2024, the city of Porto attracted 2.4 billion euros in foreign direct investment (FDI). Technology and innovation, logistics and infrastructure, and tourism are among the sectors with the greatest weight. Spain, France, and the United Kingdom lead the way among investor countries.
"Over the last few decades, the city has established itself as a destination of excellence for global companies, resulting from a combination of factors such as innovation, economic competitiveness, and talent. Today, due to local universities and research centres, Porto has a highly specialised and internationally recognised workforce," said Rui Moreira, the Mayor of Porto.
