Yves Behar at RedBridge (public, in-person, Lisbon)
RedBridge presents an evening with Yves Béhar
Founder & CEO, fuseproject
Join us for an intimate conversation with one of the world’s most influential designers and venture builders — a true bridge between Silicon Valley innovation and Portuguese craftsmanship.
Yves Béhar has shaped products used by millions, co-founded category-defining companies, and championed design as a force for positive change. With fuseproject now rooted in both San Francisco and Lisbon, and with active collaborations involving Portuguese artisans and sustainable materials, he embodies the cross-Atlantic exchange that RedBridge exists to foster.
Expect sharp insights on building ambitious companies, the role of design in shaping the human experience, sustainability and innovation, and how the entrepreneurial cultures of Lisbon and the Bay Area can amplify each other.
Open to founders, operators, investors, creatives, and changemakers who believe great ideas travel further when cultures and communities connect.
