Sharing research, knowledge and resources with other entities of Science and Technology is critical to the performance of LNEC´s mission. So LNEC maintains strategic partnerships with other institutions, such as universities, technological centres, associated laboratories and R & D & I business centres, both domestic and foreign, seeking complementarity and excellence. LNEC integrates several consortia, referring to research programmes or projects and infrastructures, with other organisations, positioning itself on the main national and international S&T networks as an active partner in areas related to its activity. At international level, cooperation actions developed with European partner institutions and with the engineering laboratories of the CPLP (Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries) stands out.
