Universidade NOVA de Lisboa

NOVA University Lisbon is a comprehensive public research institution spanning multiple campuses across the Lisbon metro area, combining selective excellence with an applied, collaborative ethos. Industry engages through co‑located laboratories at FCT NOVA and a science and technology park adjacent to the Caparica campus, alongside structured corporate partnership programs. Clinical translation is enabled by NOVA Medical School’s integration with Lisbon’s hospital network and clinical academic consortia, providing access to patient populations and real‑world settings. Research is supported by competitive European and Portuguese national funding, including Horizon Europe and the Foundation for Science and Technology, complemented by industry‑sponsored work. University‑wide innovation offices and school‑level TTOs provide IP, licensing, and startup support as a clear entry point for corporate R&D.
