In this interview, Professor Elvira Fortunato, stresses the need for rejuvenation of academic career, which is turning increasingly aged in Portugal. There is no shortage of excellent researchers who would like to enter into the academic career, was not his access cut.
In Portugal, there is also the problem of not being able to absorb all the doctorates, so it would be important for companies to recruit them. Basically, it is necessary to make a whole working definition of scientific employment areas. In this process, Professor Elvira Fortunato proposes a strategy called "Intelligent Network Application of Knowledge" (RIAS).
It is impossible that all of doctorates are limited to the academic world, so their hiring by enterprises is essential in order to prevent their emigration and as a form of Portuguese companies produce wealth based on knowledge.
