Imagine pitching your startup to over 15.000 people in the largest indoor arena in Portugal. After two years of building @comudeldotcom, I'm proud that we made our mark at the Web Summit 2024 in the Pitch Finals. This is just the beginning!

99% das marcas não sabem comunicar nas redes sociais. E é por isso que quase ninguém se lembra delas.  Se gostas do Bitalk, ajuda este post a chegar aos decisores de marketing e inovação, dá like, comenta e partilha este post 🙏 Queremos descobrir quais são as marcas em Portugal

🔥 3.500 hectares arderam na Serra da Lousã. Em 2025, Portugal já perdeu 280 mil, o pior ano em 20 anos. E na Europa? Mais de 1 milhão de hectares queimados. Isto não é tragédia. É consequência de décadas de má gestão, monoculturas… e demasiados fogos postos. Mas há solução

🏚️ O problema não és tu. É a casa onde vives. Grande parte do edificado habitacional em Portugal é antigo, mal isolado, húmido, sem iluminação natural e desconfortável durante grande parte do ano. Mas isto não é só um problema técnico. É um problema humano. 🌡️ Casas frias

What if the tools adapted to us, instead of the other way around? This is not just a new laptop. It is a shift in how we think about design, functionality, and freedom. Huawei’s 18.3” foldable MateBook transforms into a 13” device that fits easily into a bag, without

Mais de 1 ano e 2 governos depois, tudo MUDA. Em setembro de 2023, denunciámos cortes rasos ilegais na Serra da Lousã. Em novembro, 20 mil pessoas assinaram uma petição para travar estes crimes. Dois governos depois… nada mudou. Agora é o momento. Dia 3 de julho de 2025, a

Skype has officially shut down after 22 years What went wrong? It didn’t evolve, lost innovation, and let competitors take over. Founders and investors: don’t just ask “Is this worth a billion dollars?” They ask “Can it adapt when the market changes?” Adapt or disappear.

For founders: This transformation creates unprecedented opportunities. The future belongs to those who understand that abundance will define the next economy. Your ability to create value in a near-zero-cost world is the ultimate wealth-building skill. Are you prepared?

Your actionable roadmap: Invest in AI infrastructure, develop hybrid skillsets combining technical and human expertise, position for deflation rather than inflation, and focus on experience businesses. The opportunity won't last forever.

AI literacy combined with human capabilities - critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and creativity - becomes the ultimate advantage. Those who master this combination will thrive regardless of industry. But you need to act quickly before this window closes.

Work is transforming. Instead of mass unemployment, we're seeing new hybrid roles emerge. AI trainers, experience designers, and AI team orchestrators command premium pay while purely technical roles face pressure. What skills will matter most in this new reality?

Energy infrastructure supporting massive AI systems creates another wealth avenue. Advanced AI requires enormous electricity. Companies building this infrastructure will see explosive growth in coming years. But there's an even bigger shift happening in the job market:

Rural land values could rise as AI-enabled remote work drives migration from cities. Affordable housing might appreciate while urban real estate stagnates. This reshuffles the property market in ways investors aren't prepared for. And that's just the beginning.

Investments shift dramatically. Assets tied to scarce resources hold value while AI infrastructure booms. Human expertise in orchestrating AI becomes premium as inflation hedges underperform. The opportunity is enormous if you position correctly. But where exactly?

Price drops trigger deflationary spirals. Consumers delay purchases expecting cheaper prices tomorrow. Producers struggle with vanishing margins. Inflation-focused investment strategies fail completely. The wealth-building rulebook gets rewritten. How will this affect you?

AI systems now write code, create content, and design products at a fraction of previous costs. This differs from past tech shifts because AI impacts cognitive work across ALL industries at once. But here's the economic paradox that changes everything:

When everything gets ultra-cheap, we'll see huge productivity gains while traditional jobs face disruption. Consumer buying power skyrockets, creating new industries. This isn't sci-fi. The signs are already here. But few understand what happens next...

His thesis? AI will drive costs toward zero across industries - not just digital goods, but physical products too. This creates a paradox: as prices plummet, traditional economic models break down. The implications are staggering. Here's why:
