The Portugal Node signs Cooperation Agreement with Egas Moniz University

On March 25, the Portugal Node of The Millennium Project, chaired by Pedro Amador, held a meeting with the management team of Egas Moniz University, led by Rector José João Mendes, to formalize a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for future cooperation.

Through this agreement, Egas Moniz University will officially join the Portugal Node and actively contribute to its initiatives. The collaboration will begin with the organization of a joint side event titled “Futures of the Blue Economy: Science, Innovation and Business”, scheduled to take place in Porto on October 21. The event will be held in the framework of the EU-LAC Academic Summit (October 22–23).

The meeting also included the participation of Ibon Zugasti, Deputy Director and Spain Node Chair of The Millennium Project, and Paul Epping, Chair of the Netherlands Node. Both contributed to the initial planning and coordination of the upcoming side event in Porto.

This partnership marks an important step in strengthening international collaboration and advancing dialogue on future-oriented topics, particularly within the blue economy sector.
