INESC TEC’s Centre for Enterprise Systems Engineering (CESE) was one of the organisers and participants of the workshop “Fostering Global Supply Networks for the Aeronautics Industry in Portugal”, which took place on 16 January. In the session, the participants analysed several critical issues for the development of the aeronautics industry, such as the contribution of small technology-based companies to the aeronautics industry and the use of 3D metallic printing in this sector.

Did you know that you can now order a customised pair of shoes online and have it on your doorstep in 24 hours? Thanks to a partnership between technology-based companies and R&D institutions, including INESC TEC, the technology makes it possible to produce footwear units, and is now installed at Kyaia, in Guimarães. The new solution to produce customised footwear in 24 hours was developed as part of the HighSpeedShoeFactory (Model to Produce Customised Footwear) project, and changes the way the footwear industry operates.

Portugal has a high potential to produce quality wines, especially due to its climate and geological conditions, wine variety and tradition in the sector. But if it is certain that the natural conditions have contributed to strengthen the country’s position as the 12th largest wine producer in the world [1], it is also true that combining technology and these innate factors is key to strengthen this status.
