Annual Conference

The Program’s flagship event, the Annual Conference, brings together researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, and innovation stakeholders from Portugal, the U.S., and beyond. Held annually, it showcases research and innovation, fosters cross-sector dialogue, and strengthens the transatlantic community. Each edition features keynotes, panels, roundtables, networking, and research presentations, organized around themes aligned with the Program’s priorities and emerging scientific and societal challenges. The conference plays a central role in connecting academic, industry, and policy communities while highlighting the Program’s strategic impact and future directions.
