# A City: Lisbon

Lisbon is led by [June Bolneo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/junebolneo/). Her chapter works with some of the biggest names in the remote space, but it started small. 

**1) Find local partners**

June reached out to the Lisbon tech community, startup community, and Tech Jobs Fair to tell them that she was planning to set up a chapter, and ask them if they would help. 

**2) Set up a Facebook Group** 

To build the community, June needed a home. She created [Grow Remote Portugal ](https://www.facebook.com/groups/744774765884911/)and added people in as she met them. This is a place where the community can meet each other, she can let them know about events, and find out more information about what they need. 

**3) Run her first event!** 

June followed everything in the [event planning guide](/event-planning/event-planning.md), found a space who would host her, some speakers, and began to advertise.
