North American companies have expressed interest in learning more about the conditions for establishing or expanding operations in Madeira. This interest follows a mission by Invest Madeira to the West Coast of the United States, which included stops in San Francisco and Seattle.
The initiative aimed to promote the region to entrepreneurs and investors, focusing on technology, health and longevity, and the blue economy. In San Francisco, Invest Madeira participated in the 'Living in Portugal USA Roadshow 2026', where the regional tax regime and the Madeira International Business Centre attracted significant attention.
Filipa Ferreira, Executive Director of Invest Madeira, emphasized the importance of such missions for building direct relationships with business ecosystems. The mission also involved meetings with local companies and entities, along with presentations for entrepreneurs and investors in Seattle.
