UAVR marine strategy

Ecomare is an anchor project of the Portuguese

Sea Knowledge and Economy Cluster plan of action

and it operationalizes the first priority line of the

cluster, cross-cutting all other priority lines that

organize the cluster strategy, including governance

and marine environmental protection.

ECOMARE: mission

Render R&D + Innovation services and technology transfer to companies

and governmental and international organizations, on marine sciences

and technologies, with a view to sustainable use of marine resources.
