    João Borges

    Founder

    I design, write and code the Firmitas websites and see your project through to handover. At Google I worked on search and result quality, judging what counts as a good answer. I then took a global platform’s marketing to the Portuguese-speaking markets. I came back to Portugal to found the studio properly, under a name that promises what we build.

  • André Suzuki

    Commercial Manager

    I take the first call and make the visit. I listen to what your business needs to solve and come back with a closed proposal: scope, price and date, in writing. After that I stay your contact and tell you where the project stands, before you have to ask. Away from work, I like to travel.

    Commercial Director

    I visit businesses, show them the studio’s work and help them see what a new website could do for them. Before this, I spent fourteen years as an area manager at Europastry and nearly nine in sales at Lidl.
