Birthplace Celorico de Basto Occupation Entrepreneur Biographical Text Joaquim Fonseca was born in Cadeçoso, in Celorico de Basto. He married Rosa Mota, sister of Manuel António da Mota. He was the son of Francisco José da Fonseca, inspector of the Municipality of Celorico de Basto. His studies were limited to the second year of high school, held in Amarante. He had a special taste for music, having been a singer and guitarist in his spare time. Encouraged by a doctor from Celorico, who lent him the sum of 150 contos, Joaquim Fonseca went from a gravel business that he had to adventure himself into his own construction works, rolling up his brothers and brothers-in-law of the Mota family. In 1943, in turn, he creates, with Manuel António da Mota and Joaquim Pereira da Silva, the Industrias Reunidas do Tâmega, adding to the activities that he already developed the sawmill sector. In January 1946, the businessman decided to expand his business areas by creating, with Manuel António da Mota, José Joaquim Fonseca, Afonso Fonseca, Eulalio José Fonseca, Joaquim da Mota and José Luís da Mota, the Construtora do Tâmega, currently Construtora do Tâmega SA, which dedicated itself to public works. That same year it was also created Mota & Company, an initiative of his brother-in-law for activities in Africa, specifically Angola. Just as Manuel António da Mota owned part of Construtora do Tâmega, so was Joaquim Fonseca part of this company. Bibliography SANTOS, C. (2006). Construir uma Vida. Porto, Mota-Engil.
