Every year, MPP organizes its Annual Conference, a major meeting that brings together experts from Portugal and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and other actors of the MIT Portugal Community to discuss recent advances in the scientific focus areas of MPP and impact on our society.
This year, the MIT Portugal Annual Conference has returned to an in-person format. It will be held on September 20, at Aveiro Congress Center, under the motto “Education, Research, and Innovation: tomorrow’s pillars”, which seeks to discuss the importance of science and technology and its pillars, namely research, education, innovation for building the future.
For the first time, MPP will reward the work of Portuguese and MIT students via the MIT Portugal Program Poster Award. Students with MPP-FCT Scholarships or part of MPP projects, are invited to submit a poster showcasing their work in one of the strategic research areas of the MIT Portugal Program.
We look forward to seeing you in person at our Annual Conference!
