Fibrenamics on the way to the first decade

The University of Minho's research and development (R&D) platform celebrates 10 years in 2021

In a path guided by innovation, Fibrenamics is the result of a disruptive idea that in 2011 gave rise to a platform for the transfer of scientific and technological knowledge generated by the University of Minho.
Ten years later, the numbers speak for themselves. There are close to 300 national and international partners associated with this project, more than 50 technological solutions developed with 45 patents and more than 25 million euros raised for investment in R&D.

2021 will be a year of celebration with several initiatives planned for the coming months. A celebration of what these 10 years of activity represent for the group, but also a moment to present the future.
