Objectives

Our main objective is to create a collaborative space that encourages students passionate about technology to give life to their own projects. And thereby help them find their vocation and reach their full potential as individuals and as entrepreneurs, through a hands-on interaction with technology, engineering and science.

The purpose of this is creating a generation of students with new ideas and a new way of seeing the world, who can conceive innovative products and solutions that may be manufactured in Portugal.
