RE: Win a Free Trip to Lisbon, Portugal to Attend SteemFest II

in #steemfest8 years ago

I would like to go to Lisbon, Portugal to start a Bilberry and Nut farm in the Oeste Subregion of Portugal.
Starting a small business is a challenge for foreigners according to: https://www.justlanded.com/english/Portugal/Portugal-Guide/Business/Self-employment. However, I believe this can be overcome by convincing others on Steemit and presenting the business application office for foreigners with a sound business plan. We could convince them with the possible lucrative exposure for Portugal on Steemit through the intensive farm. Portugal is a small country and would profit immensely by being showcased on Steemit through this farm and its interaction with the community both on Steemit and Portugal. An aeroponics system would not be difficult to implement in the Oeste which is both near the coast (has water) and already a hub for intensive agriculture. We could post the farm's day to day operations on Steemit with photos of the development, bios of new team members with tags to their own Steemit accounts, descriptions of operations, and finally, photos of the actual harvest itself. By attending the Steemfest, I would be able to meet with like minded Steemit users, present the idea to locals, and begin the application process for the farm with a well prepared full business plan along with an anticipated timeline.
