Ownership is 14.6% local government and 84.6% City of Milan. Other shareholders hold the remaining 0.8%. Privatisation (partial) was scheduled for the end of 2001 but was stopped after the events of 11th September. Now the proposed date is October 2002 but this has still to be finalised. Only 30% of the shareholding will be moved into the private sector with no shareholder having more than 5%. There are no legislative changes required. The provision of airport services is shared between ENAV (ATC), Italian police (police), SEA (security), ATA and SEA Handling (passenger and ramp handling), Dufntal (duty-free) and SEA Parking (car parking).

    How can Portfolio attract people on airport retail environment? Joana dos Santos Ramos Tição Supervisor: Paulo Gonçalves Marcos, PhD Dissertation in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of MSc in Business Administration, at the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, January 2015 Abstract Title: How can Portfolio attract people on airport retail environment? Author: Joana dos Santos Ramos Tição Being present on the airport retail environment forces companies to frame their strategies based on this industry particularities. Here there are very distinct characteristics from all the others retail environments such as, consumers’ schedules and culture. Portfolio is the largest retail space inside Lisbon’s international airport restrict zone. With more than 400 m2 this store offers consumers a selection of the best Portuguese products of all kind of industries. The store used to be alone just in front of the Lojas Francas de Portugal’s exit and it was one of the first stores that passengers saw after passing the airport’s security point. On July 2013, with the opening of a new commercial area, international competitors surrounded Portfolio. Besides new consumers passing by, the new commercial area was not giving Portfolio the expected revenues. It was time to define what was the next step to do. Two options were being taken into account, develop a communication strategy, complemented by store improvement or bet in impulse shopping in order to attract more passengers and increase the number of tickets. Key-words: Airport Retail; Lisbon International Airport; Communication Strategy; Impulse Shopping i Resumo Título: Como pode a Portfolio atrair mais consumidores no ambiente de retalho aeroportuário?

Sussman JR East Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering and Engineering Systems Thesis Supervisor Accepted by Daniele Veneziano Chairman, Departmental Committee for Graduate Students 1 2 Development Impacts of High-Speed Rail: Megalopolis Formation and Implications for Portugal’s Lisbon-Porto High-Speed Rail Link By Sevara Melibaeva Submitted to the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering on May 18, 2010 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Transportation. ABSTRACT High-speed rail (HSR) has been gaining acceptance worldwide with development of rail technology and rising concerns over climate change and congestion in airports and on roads. The implementation of high-speed rail lines also plays an important role in reshaping the travel patterns and activities of people and consequently change the ways cities develop. An interesting indirect implication of HSR is the potential for megalopolis formation created by fusion of multiple cities linked by HSR. An overall consensus is present in the existing theoretical literature as to what development impacts may be from the HSR investment, including the importance of the resulting agglomeration externalities and formation of megalopolises.
