The Portuguese Embassy in Paris hosted an unprecedented meeting on 24 March which brought together more than a hundred graduates from four of Portugal's leading higher education institutions: Católica Lisbon, Instituto Superior Técnico, ISEG and Nova SBE.
Promoted by the Portuguese Diaspora Council and AICEP, with the support of the Portuguese Embassy in Paris and Caixa Geral de Depósitos, the purpose of the event was to strengthen links between highly qualified Portuguese professionals working in France and to boost their contribution to Portugal's economic development.
From investment banking to large luxury houses, from strategic consulting to artificial intelligence, Portuguese talent is now positioned where decisions are made. The alumni present represent a qualified and transversal presence in some of the most relevant sectors of the global economy, including financial institutions, consulting, consumer and luxury goods, industry, energy, technology and entrepreneurship.
The meeting took place in an informal atmosphere:
The representatives of the four institutions highlighted the importance of this initiative as a platform for connecting talent, knowledge and opportunities, underlining the potential of the diaspora as an engine for innovation, growth and internationalisation.
The institutions also agreed to replicate this meeting model in other strategic geographies, strengthening a global network of highly qualified Portuguese alumni and promoting more coordinated action at an international level. This event marks a significant step towards building a global community of Portuguese talent, capable of generating economic impact and strengthening Portugal's presence in the main centres of international decision-making.
“More than preparing excellent professionals, today we have a responsibility to maintain an active connection with the talent we have helped to develop. This global network of alumni is a strategic asset that can, and must, be mobilised to create value for Portugal,” says the Dean of ISEG, Professor João Duque.
The ISEG student, Agate de Sousa, won the gold medal in the long jump at the World Indoor Athletics Championships, achieving a historic feat for Portuguese sport.
The athlete won the event with a high jump, confirming her status among the world's elite in the sport. Born in São Tomé and Príncipe and naturalized Portuguese, she currently represents Portugal in international competitions.
This excellent result is a source of great pride for ISEG, demonstrating the ability of its students to combine academic success with sporting performance at the highest level.

CEsA - Center for Studies on Africa and Development (ISEG Research) launched its first book club in March 2025, under the heading Development Studies and under the coordination of researcher Susana Brissos, visiting assistant professor at ISEG - University of Lisbon.
The Development Studies Reading Club on African Literature was born to mark and pay tribute to the 50th anniversary of African Independence. The initial readings were: We, the people of Makulusu, by the Angolan José Luandino Vieira and Sleepwalking Land, by Mozambican Mia Couto.
The next reading is Niketche: A Story of Polygamy(The Last Will and Testament of Mr Napumoceno da Silva Araújo), by Paulina Chiziane (Mozambique). The session will take place on the April 16th, at 17h30 to 19h00, in the Room 209 of the Francesinhas 1 Building.
Participation is free and the discussion will take place in Portuguese.
Synopsis of the book “A Story of Polygamy (Paulina Chiziane)”
Rami, married for twenty years to Tony, a high-ranking police officer, with whom she has several children, discovers that she shares him with several women, with whom he has started other families. Her marriage, with the «paper» and the ring on her finger, turns out to be an ironic drama in which she is only one of the characters. In a feverish search, Rami forces herself to meet «the others». Her husband is a polygamist! In the painful journey that begins, centuries of tradition and customs, the cruelty of life and the abysmal differences in culture between the north and south of the land that is hers, overwhelm her. And only the infinite wisdom that suffering provokes will show her the way through a labyrinth of emotions, revelations, contradictions and dangerous ambiguities. Polygamy and monogamy, what do they mean? Culture, institutionalization, hypocrisy, convenience, convention or the natural condition of being human, within the framework of intelligence and affections? Paulina Chiziane extends Ariadne's thread to us and guides us with the courage, skill and truth of someone who knows the right and wrong sides of the adventure of living life. Niketche, a dance of love and eroticism, is a mirror in which we see ourselves and see ourselves again, but in which, surely, only a few of us will admit to being reflected.
On 14 April, the “25 April at ISEG” initiative, organized by YAP ISEG, will take place at ISEG.
The session will begin at 3:30 p.m. in the CGD Auditorium with a speech by Professor João Duque.
This will be followed by a panel discussion on the “Evolution of Education in the final years and after April 25” with Professor Carlos Bastien and MP Rui Tavares.
After a short coffee break, the conversation will resume with former students Eduardo Ferro Rodrigues, Emanuel Augusto dos Santos and Manuela Ferreira Leite on “ISEG before and after the Revolution”.
In addition, throughout the month the exhibition “Student Springs” by the Commission to Commemorate 50 years of April 25 will be on display in the Atrium on Floor -1 of the Francesinhas Buildings.
The main aim of this project is to preserve awareness of the historical importance of April 25 among new generations of students, while promoting the sharing of memories and reflection on the differences experienced in higher education before and after the Revolution.
Free admission.
