Participating in the Protechting program was a key milestone in OWL’s journey. It gave us direct access to Fidelidade, Multicare, and Luz Saúde, helping us understand real corporate challenges and refine our solution accordingly. 

PEDRO RESENDE - OWL FOUNDER

Our identity is a mosaic inspired by Portuguese tiles, Chinese symbols, and Peruvian tapestries.


Each piece carries a story and adds its value. Together, they represent a program that is diverse, connected, and stronger as a whole.

FOR ALMOST A DECADE,

WE'VE PAIRED STARTUPS WITH CORPORATES TO SOLVE REAL PROBLEMS. NOW, ACROSS EUROPE, CHINA AND LATIN AMERICA.

With 50+ sponsored pilots, founders work side-by-side with industry leaders to test solutions and grow into long-term partnerships.

The idea is simple:

innovation has no borders.

A startup in Lima can work with an insurer in Lisbon. A healthtech in Shanghai can pilot in Europe. Together, we build pilots that deliver results.
