Why Portugal?
Portugal has a high-level education system, which every year graduates thousands
of well-prepared professionals. More than 600 of these new graduations each year correspond to
new doctorates in the areas of life, medical and health sciences, and medical engineering.
Why Portugal?
Portugal has a high-quality healthcare system, with excellent professionals and
modernly equipped. This quality is regularly assessed by an independent national regulatory
organisation, and there is a growing number of hospitals achieving international accreditation.
The ultimate evidence of the quality of the Portuguese healthcare system consists on the
country’s high-standard health indicators.
Why Portugal?
Portugal is a competitive partner for contract R&D services and clinical trials,
given the quality of its research infrastructures and its investment-friendly environment. For
instance, the country has recently adopted a new legal/regulatory framework that anticipates some
of the positive changes that the European Clinical Trials Regulation will bring, such as streamlining
application procedures and eliminating unjustified bureaucratic barriers.
