Portugal has become one of Europe’s most dynamic education markets, driven by consistent domestic and international investment, regulatory stability, and unique conditions for the sustainable development of high‑quality educational projects.
Our multidisciplinary team advises some of the world’s leading investors who have chosen Portugal to expand their education portfolios.
We work with sophisticated institutions whose legal challenges require coordination across multiple areas of law and the management of a wide ecosystem of public and private stakeholders.
Our Education practice combines deep sector knowledge with top‑tier legal expertise, covering all the key areas required for these projects, including Corporate M&A, Urban Planning, Employment and Labour, Tax, and Intellectual Property.
Investment in education projects, whether greenfield or through the acquisition of existing institutions, involves significant complexity. This includes the regulatory framework, construction and licensing, certification and approval of international curricula, and the management of essential stakeholders, from public authorities to school communities.
We operate as a genuine one‑stop shop for educational brands seeking to grow in Portugal. We work with rigour, commitment and the conviction that supporting the education sector contributes directly to shaping future generations.
