Lisbon

Known as the powerhouse for European research and development, Lisbon was home to Jesuit Colleges dating back to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries that were sites of innovative scientific teachings that contributed hugely to the fields of mathematics and navigation. Later in 1949, the Portuguese neurologist António Egas Moniz was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for being an early developer of the cerebral angiography.

In more recent years, Portugal has begun to make significant strides across various sub-disciplines of engineering, applied science, and medicine. The federal government’s substantial investment in promising research projects in Lisbon is now positioning the city among Europe’s foremost scientific hubs. With a flourishing landscape of scientific, technological, and healthcare advancements, Lisbon is emerging as one of Europe’s premier academic conference destinations, inviting recognition for its contributions to cutting-edge innovation.
