Andreia Cunha

Altominho TV Reporter

Working at Maak Espaço Cowork has been a very positive and rewarding experience.

“It's a pleasant, welcoming and professional space, with a relaxed atmosphere, friendly people and plenty of flexibility. I feel comfortable and motivated here, and I particularly value the chance to connect with other people and projects.”

Oleks Shava

SAP Consultant

A wonderful space!

“I work remotely, sometimes from home, but my favorite workdays are the ones I spend at Maak. I enjoy the facilities, the large desks, the lighting, the meeting rooms and the many cafés nearby, as well as my coworkers, who are easy to make friends with and make tough workdays more enjoyable through conversations during breaks. Even my son made friends with my coworkers when I brought him to the coworking space. Maak's owners, Olavo and Alexa, have created a wonderful space. Thank you!”

Sofia Soeiro

Scrum Master

The kind of place you want to stay, even if it's just for a coffee.

“Maak is a workspace I enjoy using when I'm away from Lisbon, but it's much more than that. It's the kind of place you want to stay, even if it's just for a coffee. Designed to bring comfort and well-being to the working day, it combines a welcoming atmosphere with a friendly, close-knit coworking community.”

Gaspar Martins

Managing Partner at Balmo — Engineering and Construction

Much more than a workspace.

“I've been using Maak for about three years and have found much more than a workspace here. Its flexibility, professionalism and atmosphere make Maak a place where I enjoy working, meeting and spending time. The opportunity to network, learn from other coworkers and even develop projects together has made this experience especially rewarding.”

Abby Phenix

Senior Sustainability Consultant

A real sense of belonging.

“I've worked in coworking spaces in the US and Europe, but working at Maak has been a real pleasure. The team has created a true sense of belonging, and I genuinely enjoy being around the people who work here. The thoughtfully designed space, fast and reliable internet, natural light and peaceful atmosphere make the working day more productive. But it's the people who keep me coming back. I look forward to every day at Maak!”

João Aniceto

Full Stack Developer

I'm building connections and gradually becoming more socially confident.

“Being at MAAK has meant much more to me than I initially imagined. I arrived as quite a reserved person and, over time, I've grown in confidence, met people, shared ideas and become increasingly involved in the community. To me, MAAK is much more than a place to work: it's a beautiful, comfortable and welcoming space where I'm building connections and gradually becoming more socially confident.”

Anastasiia Bobkova

Director of Digital Communications

What I value most about Maak is being surrounded by such dynamic and interesting people.

“I work in human rights and independent media, so community is an important part of my values, and I'm very happy to have found one here. As someone who recently moved to Ponte de Lima from abroad, Maak has become much more than a place to work. It has also played an important part in building my social life and connecting me with the local community.”

Connected to our local community

Created in Ponte de Lima, for those who want to work from here

What if you didn't have to leave Ponte de Lima to find somewhere to work, meet people and make things happen?

That idea is what brought Maak to life.

We're Alexa and Olavo. In 2022, we decided to create the space we felt our hometown was missing: a place where professionals from different fields could work, think and grow together.

Here, different ways of working, experiences and projects come together. Freelancers, teams, remote workers and people who choose Ponte de Lima and Maak as a way of life.
