A winning Union

An Excellent Example

On the 20th anniversary of Villas&Golfe it is fair to remember the sense of public service that has been evident in this important media outlet, as well as the quality of the articles published, the sense of opportunity of the reports made and the spirit of exemption and independence that has been shown.
Paulo Martins has created a team of competent technicians who have sought to contribute to the promotion of tourism – and, in particular, golf tourism – in Portugal, as well as to explain the relevance of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) to a small open economy such as ours.
And by aiming to explain the importance of FDI to Portugal, it is explaining the indispensability of a certain fiscal stability, the need for rigour in the management of Public Finances, in short, the relevance of what is conventionally called the psychological component of investment.Villas&Golfe has sought to explain how fundamental a territorial planning policy is, the implementation of a consistent strategic planning of the Portuguese economy, as well as the creation of efficient support mechanisms to a model of internationalisation of our productive apparatus.
Additionally, it has also sought to portray various experiences of success in the field of business management, assuming, as far as possible, an optimistic perspective in relation to the future of Portugal’s economy, without, however, abandoning the sense of realities.And it has done all of this with skill and art, with the affirmation of free and, therefore, independent spirits, without compromising concessions or complicit omissions.
And it is for this set of reasons that Villas&Golfe deserves our congratulations, our support and our solidarity.
That it has been present throughout these 20 years.
That it will continue in its presence as long as the Creator so desires.
Nothing more, nothing less...
