Fernando Antas da Cunha, managing partner at Antas da Cunha Ecija said: “The integration of Luís and André will give us the possibility to reinforce our capacity and quality in the north, with regards to the Employment area. An area that has undergone major changes in the last year and has come to assume an unprecedented role in our activity, largely due to the exceptional times in which we live.” He adds, “In this context of a pandemic, it is known that the north of the country and its business community has been especially affected due to the huge contraction in the level of economic activity. From now on, being able to count on the experience of two professionals who have a deep knowledge of the local market and its specificities, is undoubtedly an enormous asset for our office.”
