Meet João Romão



JR Give a big ARRR to João Romão, another mentor in the 3rd Edition of Startup Pirates @ Lisboa.

João graduated from Computer Science and Business Administration in 2010, after collaborating in AIESEC, launching a web startup at the age of 19 and living in Brazil after that for one year. During his master’s degree he worked for Portugal’s largest IT Consultancy Firm as a Business Intelligence consultant. More recently, and a bit cooler, he won the European Commission’s 2012 audience award for European Young Innovator of the Year, from the European Comission. In 2012, Romão co-founded Wishareit, a social gifting platform that helps you find, recommend, give and receive the perfect gifts with your friends and family. Long story short, a place where you can avoid receiving cactuses as a gift and discover some pretty amazing stuff to ask your family for x-mas. He once pitched Wishareit dressed as a tiger and you can find him in some strange parties (sometimes as a tiger as well). He likes to perform ‘Ask me anything’ sessions.

Studied and worked in Poland, Sweden, Iceland, Japan, Portugal and US. Currently a PhD student in the Sustainable Energy Systems track of the MIT-Portugal Program where he tries to unveil parts of the urban futures.
For a while now, he has been set on having a positive impact on a billion people, following his course at Singularity University held at NASA in Silicon Valley (and has yet to admit failure).
When not looking for answers to simple questions, he competes in university-level volleyball, cultivates his addiction to music or procrastinates,
creatively, with coffee.
