MARIA RIBEIRO

Business Development Intern

BIO

I was born and raised in Aveiro, Portugal, and my journey has been driven by a strong interest in people, global markets, technology, and how meaningful connections can create opportunities for positive change

My background in Languages and International Relations, along with my current studies in International Business, has given me exposure to different perspectives on business, society, communication, and international collaboration. My experience through an Erasmus exchange in the Czech Republic, together with my involvement in socio-political and volunteering initiatives, has strengthened my understanding of different cultures and communities.

My professional experiences have also taught me the importance of understanding people and their needs. I have worked in different environments and with people from diverse backgrounds. These experiences have developed my adaptability, communication, critical thinking, and ability to approach challenges from different perspectives.

At Voxitec, I work on the front line of the company’s business development operations and strategic growth. I focus on identifying meaningful problems, understanding organizational needs, and building relationships that create opportunities for impact. I work across clients, industry partners, universities, government institutions, research organizations, and other stakeholders, with a focus on building meaningful connections and opportunities across Europe. Through these relationships, I connect real-world challenges with Voxitec’s technology capabilities and advance its mission of building technology that serves human needs.

Outside of work, I enjoy sports and spending quality time with my family. These experiences continue to shape my curiosity, discipline, adaptability, and commitment to continuous learning.
