Local activities from the new branch office in Lisbon are due to commence at the beginning of next year.

HDI Global board of management member David Hullin said: “We have been operating successfully in Portugal for more than 20 years. Opening a branch office in Lisbon is the logical progression of our successful business development, our market analysis and our ambition to be the partner in transformation for our clients.

“On the one hand, we want to underline our strong commitment to Portugal and the entire Iberian Peninsula. On the other hand, we are much better accessible to our clients with personal contacts in the region.”
