The Portuguese Science Summit Innovation 2026, taking place between 15 and 16 July is issuing a call for proposals for participation in the event’s panel discussions. The initiative, whose theme is “Preparing for the Future,” aims to support the ongoing process of defining strategic priorities for research and innovation in Portugal.
Members of the scientific community, businesses, organizations from various sectors, and public administration are invited to form groups and identify specific issues for consideration by the Agency for Research and Innovation (AI²), as well as the associated scientific, societal, and/or economic factors and impacts.
Each session will have a moderator and a rapporteur, and a summary of the main contributions will subsequently be presented publicly; these contributions will be taken into account in the process of defining strategic guidelines for the next five years.
Proposals must be submitted using the designated form, which will be available until June 16, 2026.
Proposals will be evaluated by the event’s Organizing Committee.
Notification of acceptance will be sent by July 1.
