Portugal: Lisbon Metropolitan Area

Overview

INESC - Instituto de Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores (http://www.inesc.pt/en/) is a private, non-profit institution that was founded in 1980 and has established itself as the national reference model of the University-Industry relationship.

The holding-type structure of INESC introduces a model of diversity, complementarity and creative freedom, through its participated members (R&DT Institutions):

- INESC TEC (http://www.inesctec.pt

- INESC ID (http://www.inesc-id.pt)

- INOV INESC Inovação (www.inov.pt

- INESC MN (https://sites.google.com/site/inescmn/)

- INESC Coimbra (http://www.uc.pt/en/org/inescc)

 

For this topic we suggest to enter a short description of each entity, above listed, that allows to understand the innovation services provided to industry and SMEs under the INESC flag.
