Nutri Ventures is the first children’s entertainment brand in the world to promote Healthy Eating. At a time when child obesity is considered by the World Health Organization to be the pandemic of the 21st-century, Nutri Ventures is a fun and effective response to the issue of healthy eating for children between the ages of 4 and 10. Our objective is to use entertainment to create a positive environment around the issue of healthy eating so that children will associate good feelings with healthy food and parents will be provided with a perfect opportunity to influence their children’s diet. But, much more than just an animated series, we are also a movement and a cause! That’s why, in every country, Nutri Ventures is setting up partnerships with organizations whose mission is aligned with ours. This is the case with government departments for Education and Health, NGO’s that promote the cause of Healthy Eating, food distributors and producers. We are helping to strengthen the message of each one of these partnerships through our story and characters. Only by joining together can we beat this 21st century pandemic and create a healthier future for our children!

Beresford Capital is an independent partner-owned corporate and investment advisory firm based in Portugal. We are the preferred advisor for companies and entrepreneurs who want to raise capital, grow, expand or exit corporate projects. At Beresford, we are committed to deliver the highest quality, value-added mergers, acquisitions and related corporate finance advisory services for transactions with strong focus on national and cross-border M&A advisory. We also specialize in raising private equity and infrastructure funds from institutional investors worldwide and in advising on the secondary sale or restructuring of portfolios of direct or fund investments. Beresford Capital is the corporate finance exclusive partner in Portugal of IR Global, a multi-disciplinary professional services network, reinforcing the scope and depth of services, offering our clients global reach with global presence. Our path began in 2004, where we understood that the Portuguese market was underserved in terms of high-quality independent investment advisory firms and we quickly built a portfolio of national and international clients. We developed our activities since then under Bluemint Capital. In November 2022, the majority of the M&A operations and the Management Service Agreements of Bluemint Capital were spun off into Beresford Capital Advisors.

Liberdade Capital is an independent partner-owned corporate and investment advisory firm based in Portugal. We are the preferred advisor for companies and entrepreneurs who want to raise capital, grow, expand or exit corporate projects. We understand that the vast majority of successful businesses are born out of the will, determination, vision and focus of risk-taking entrepreneurs and managers, and the project becomes a life-enriching experience, many times with generational impact. We also understand that many times there is only one opportunity to sell the company so they must partner with advisors who seek to maximise their return and choose the right partner for the future development of the enterprise. Our path began in 2004, where we understood that the Portuguese market was underserved in terms of high-quality independent investment advisory firms and we quickly built a portfolio of national and international clients. Using our expertise, in 2014, Bluemint and Absolut Midas – a leading Portuguese investment advisory boutique – merged under the Bluemint Capital brand and joined the Globalscope international M&A network, reinforcing the scope and depth of services offered to our clients. In November 2022 the M&A operations of Bluemint Capital were spun off into Liberdade Capital.
