Fernando Alves — Business Development Executive
Fluent in Spanish and English, I’m passionate about entrepreneurship, innovation, and the world of Startups and SaaS. My career has taken me through major tech hubs, including Barcelona, Dublin, and now Lisbon, where I work at RemoFirst. I’m energized by the intersection of channels, customers, and technology—focused on building meaningful connections between people and businesses. Throughout my career, I’ve developed a strong network across customer and partner ecosystems, guided by three core values: Persistency, Positivity, and Passion. These values continue to drive my growth and consistent performance. Outside of work, you’ll likely find me running or exploring new corners of the world. Since October 2013, I’ve completed 29 marathons, and I’m working toward running all six Major Marathons—Boston is next (2026?). I’m also deeply devoted to my family, staying active, and discovering new cultures through travel. Favorite quotes: “If you are not taking care of your customer, your competitor will.” – Bob Hooey “Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.” – Michael Jordan
