User Research in Portugal
Remote or lab-based user research in Portugal, with real customers and local, Senior UX Researchers
Portugal, which is officially known as the Portuguese Republic, was once Europe’s greatest power. Its capital city Lisbon, is the cultural and economic centre of the country and is a popular tourist destination due largely to its reputation for great food, music and sport. For anyone planning research in Portugal it is highly likely that it will be located in Lisbon where there are good research facilities and good internet speeds. It’s not a bad place to stay if you are observing!
About two thirds of Portugal’s population live in urban areas, split between industrial areas like Lisbon, Setúbal, and Porto, and coastal plains such as Minho. When it was the richest European country, its colonial empire stretched to Asia, Africa and South America. However, those richest were not invested in developing domestic infrastructure and so in the 19th & 20th centuries Portugal was one of western Europe’s poorest countries.

I worked with UX24/7 across a multitude of markets around Europe for UX projects while working at Samsung.
