Software Development & Web Design in Coimbra
Software development, web design and hosting for Coimbra's university, healthcare, research and services businesses, delivered remotely from Bucharest with EU hosting.
Coimbra is home to one of Europe's oldest universities, with 141k residents, a large hospital centre and the Instituto Pedro Nunes incubator. Research spin-offs, health services and student-driven trade give the city a knowledge-based economy that needs clear, trustworthy sites.
What a business in Coimbra has to get right
Portuguese invoices must come from software certified by the Autoridade Tributária, with an ATCUD code and QR code on each document. Data protection is overseen by the CNPD, and many service businesses must link the electronic complaints book (Livro de Reclamações) from their site.
How we work with Coimbra
GRADAX works from one office in Bucharest and delivers to Coimbra remotely, in a time zone two hours behind Bucharest. Meetings happen by video, and sites can be written in Portuguese and English. Hosting runs in EU datacentres in Germany and Finland.
