VENUE

Nova SBE Campus in beautiful Carcavelos is a Campus built for interaction. The archetype of Portuguese reality: near the metropolis, yet close to the sea; looking onto a broad horizon, where the future is to be discovered, while also being close to places where history and culture live. The newly built Campus benefits from the fantastic Lisbon weather and invites you to go outside and enjoy the fantastic coast view.
