The problem is that "expats" don't come create a tech haven. They come with remote jobs, earn good multiples of the local salaries, come increase rents, convert houses to temporary accommodation, fund the party scene, and then they leave. There has been no concrete signs of Lisbon becoming a "tech haven".
