ABOUT US

TICE.PT is the Portuguese National ICT Cluster. TICE.PT developed a strategic agenda for the Portuguese ICT sector based on three horizontal axis (Telecommunications, Information Systems and Electronics) and 12 vertical application domains (including areas like Industry 4.0, Smart Cities, Mobility and 5G). This strategic agenda includes also key areas like Internationalization, Internet of Future and Education and Training, key ingredients to foster ICT sector growth and sustainability. Using this matrix, TICE.PT actively promotes cooperation projects, especially large-scale R&D projects (and demonstrators), and therefore was involved in the last 10 years in multiple cooperation projects at national and international level, including in key areas like Mobility, Smart Cities (it is a member of the Integrated Infrastructures Action Cluster under the EIP on Smart Cities and Communications and a partner in CityCatalyst project) and 5G (it is partner of the 5Go.pt R&D project). Currently, TICE.PT gathers 10 business and professional associations, 7 Research and Technoloy Organizations, 8 Universities/Polytechnic Schools and 59 companies (13 Corporates, 33 SME and 13 Start-ups).
