Ricardo Gaio began his professional career in engineering at an industrial company specializing in drainage systems and solutions for the construction industry. He then moved to an international provider of door technology and access solutions for buildings, where he initially worked in project management and technical specification. During his more than ten years with the company, he increasingly took on sales responsibilities and was responsible for business development in Portugal and Galicia. 

Later in his career, he held management positions at a global industrial group in the field of locking and security technology. In this role, he was responsible, among other things, for integrating two companies as part of mergers and played a key role in driving the organization’s personnel and structural expansion. In his most recent position at a company specializing in automatic door systems and access solutions, he led a team of sales, technical and logistics employees and supported the further development of the business, including in the Middle East.

Ricardo Gaio has completed several part-time professional development programs in sales, marketing and digitalization. At the Instituto Português de Administração de Marketing (IPAM), he completed both an executive postgraduate program in Commercial Management & Sales and an advanced qualification in e-commerce.
