Lionesa Business Hub

Lionesa Business Hub has created a true business resort with all the services that anyone might need: hairdresser, gym, laundry, bank, restaurants, bars… We provide activities that encourage the network, and the sharing of ideas. We also offer spaces that go beyond the office, which provide a whole neuro-stimulation experience. We realize that happiness at work is no longer just snacks and a ping-pong table. That is why alongside our core business, we assume in our essence, a strong compromise with culture. Art and creativity are therefore an integral part of Lionesa's experience, as we believe that innovation is nurtured through this way. Above all, we empower our community, by offering a flexible work environment, where they can count on a wide range of benefits, including surfing classes, golf classes, an outdoor gym, natural parks, pet-sitting services, and a focus on providing accessibility to the most diverse lifestyles. We want a space of choice for talent. A space that makes them come, instead of them having to come. A space of joy, life, reflection, innovation, collaboration, knowledge, and above all fun. All in all, we are a multicultural entrepreneurial resort, hosting more than 120 companies and acting as an agent of innovation and acceleration of businesses and human talent at a global scale. In the latest years, we attracted a large quantity and quality of foreign investment to Porto, namely in the IT, ID and Shared Services area. Companies such as Oracle, Farfetch, eDreams, Vestas, Cofco, Klockner Pentaplast, Generix and Hilti are some of the brands which have trusted Lionesa to become their new home. We are currently expanding, doubling our operational area from 56.000 square meters to 140.000 square meters until 2025. Our aim is to transform the Via Norte area, into the largest technology and innovation valley and happiness hub in Portugal.
