Zavo is building the AI-powered operating system for restaurants and hospitality businesses. Founded in May 2025 by Can Zehebi and Ilkan Gezer and backed by Y Combinator (F25), Zavo replaces the patchwork of disconnected tools most restaurant operators rely on - separate POS, payments, reservations, and marketing software - with a single unified platform that uses agentic AI to automate finance, operations, and customer engagement. With 800+ businesses on the platform less than a year after launch, Zavo is moving fast in a market dominated by legacy incumbents.
Luna House is Cascais' most-loved coliving and coworking hub — a boutique B&B with nine private rooms in summer, a digital nomad village with community programming in winter. Founded in 2022 by Olena (Lena) Matveieva, it offers coworking for 25 people with 120mb/sec fibre, an event studio, team workation packages, and a resident dog named Luna who consistently out-reviews the human staff.
