This program, which aims to promote innovation in Portugal, is based on the development of “information and communication technologies institute” and a cooperation program in teaching and research, especially in the area of information and communication technologies (ICT).
Research Projects
The creation of this Institute provides for the development of research projects on topics such as processing and information networks, including software engineering and the computational treatment of language, which are strategic areas for Priberam.
Language Technologies Institute
One of the institutes at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) is the Language Technologies Institute (LTI), a leading research centre specialising in language technologies.
CMU-Portugal Industrial Affiliates
Priberam, one of the CMU-Portugal industrial affiliates, is committed to increasing its investment in research and development activities. One example is André Martins, Priberam’s researcher, that was a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University under this program.
