2019 Annual Conference - About

September 30, 2019
Aula Magna Auditorium
University of Azores, Ponta Delgada, Azores

Join the MIT Portugal Partnership 2030 (MPP2030) for the annual conference, held this year in Ponta Delgada, Azores. This year’s conference title is: “The Atlantic as a platform for science and technological impact.” It will feature world-renowned speakers, networking opportunities, and a poster session.

The 2019 MIT Portugal Annual Conference sets a special milestone because we’re the first international partnership to hold an event of this nature in the islands, and also because the Azores represent a strategic element in the 2030 vision of the MIT Portugal Program.

Our goal for the MPP2030 Conference is to gather a wide group of participants from MIT; Portuguese national institutions (academic, research, and industry); and the Azores in the hopes of involving the island community more deeply in our international partnership.

Register and join us in Azores!
