Description

The PRODUTECH R3 Innovation Pact is a strategic and integrated initiative, comprising a set of programs aimed at:

1

Transforming Industry, developing and transferring R&D and transforming it into new products and services (namely production technologies), enabling and supporting companies in this sector in their associated innovation processes, but also supporting companies in user sectors to adopt and endogenize these new technologies in their production systems, contributing to competitiveness, sustainability and resilience;

2

Qualifying Industry for Resilience, Growth and Innovation;

3

Training and Professional Education in Innovative Production Technologies, thus supporting the ambitious transformation;

4

Internationalization of companies;

5

Broad promotion and dissemination of the Pact and its outcomes.

Goals

The PRODUTECH R3 project aims to bring about a structural change in the Production Technologies sector (PT), enabling it to exploit the significant investments the industry will make in terms of the green and digital transition, thus reducing external technological dependence, increasing the added value generated in the country and contributing to a change in the specialization of the Portuguese economy.

Based on a partnership that brings together 108 companies and other entities from the Production Technologies, the main sectors of industry and the scientific and technological system, the project envisages the collaborative development of 85 new innovative products and services and their demonstration in more than 52 pilots in companies from the user sectors, and the development of complementary actions in the areas of education and training, internationalization, dissemination and capacity building of the Production Technologies, inducing a structural change and the creation of a truly dynamic and sustainable innovation eco-system in the area of production technologies.

This approach aims to take advantage of the cross-cutting nature of production technologies and cross-fertilization processes, leveraging the positioning of companies in the production technologies sector and promoting knock-on effects throughout the national economic fabric.
