ITN - Lisbon, 29th January 2010
Agência de Inovação is essencially dedicated to
the promotion of innovation and technological
development with a view to facilitating closer ties
between research activities and the portuguese
business sector.
• Administrative Protocol between Agência de
Inovação and CERN, for the on-the-job training of
Portuguese Technical Graduates, signed in 1996.
• Agência de Inovação offers opportunities for
advanced training to young portuguese graduates in
CERN, in technological areas where the
competence of this organization is internacionally
recognised and that are of strategic importance for
the increase in the competitiveness of portuguese
companies.
• Training from 12 to 24 months at maximum.
• Applications are considered by selection committees
wich are organised by Agência de Inovação.
• CERN gives the final approval.
