What is the fundamental role of Research and Technology Organisations (RTOs)? 🤔 They drive innovation, improve quality of life, and strengthen economic competitiveness 📈 by reinvesting revenue into new innovation cycles. This perspective is highlighted by EARTO - European Association of Research and Technology Organisations in their recently published report 📑 on the economic impact of 15 European institutions. Among the contributors is #INESCTEC, an EARTO member and recent recipient of its European Innovation Award 🏆. The report, based on data from the 2021-2022 period, showcases the vital contributions of RTOs to society and the economy.
