INEGI joins Portuguese Technological Platform for Construction to contribute to the progress of the sector

INEGI recently joined the Portuguese Technological Platform for Construction (PTPC), a network that aims to improve the global competitiveness of the national construction sector, within the scope of internationalization, growth and sustainable construction, bringing together companies, entities of the National Scientific and Technological System (SCTN), associations, and other entities relevant to the sector.

The Institute has been working with the construction sector, creating competitive solutions for managing the life cycle of infrastructures, from the development of new materials to the implementation of advanced monitoring technologies and structural integrity. With the integration in this platform, it intends to strengthen this connection, reinforcing the technological response adjusted to the needs of the sector.

The Portuguese Technological Platform for Construction - which brings together more than 60 partners, including large and small and medium-sized companies, SCTN and public administration entities, and associations - contributes not only to reflection on the sector, but also to the implementation of initiatives and research, development and innovation projects that can contribute to increasing competitiveness in the general context of the economy.
