It is with great sorrow that ISEG shares the grief of Jorge Coelho's family, whose untimely death leaves us poorer.
A graduate of ISEG, Jorge Coelho was a distinguished alumnus with a remarkable career in politics and business, having been Minister of Public Works and Minister of Internal Administration.
He was also a dedicated member of the ISEG School Council.
The President of the ISEG Economic Foundation and founder of Banco BIG, Carlos Rodrigues, remembers his friend and fellow countryman with great emotion. "All of this is devastating". "Jorge was one of the best people I knew. He was one of the most generous, reliable and transparent people I've ever met. It was a joy to spend time with him," he told Expresso a few minutes after learning of Jorge Coelho's death.
