On February 28, 2024, Ana Sargento, a member of CARME and an adjunct professor at the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, took part as a speaker in the round table at the event “Planning: empowering and strengthening the Public Administration”, the launch of the new model for simulating economic impacts on a regional scale PReMMIA, organized by PlanAPP – Centre of Competence for Planning, Policies and Foresight of the Public Administration, which was held at the CCDRC in Coimbra.

CARME Member – Teresa Eugénio wins 1st place in the “LUIZ CHAVES DE ALMEIDA” Accounting Prize – 2023 – 31st Edition

The 1st place of the “LUIZ CHAVES DE ALMEIDA” Accounting Prize – 2023 – 31st Edition, organized by APOTEC – Portuguese Association of Accounting Technicians, was awarded to Teresa Cristina Pereira Eugénio (CARME member), Cristiana Rodrigues Santos and Vítor Luís Carrasqueira dos Santos. The jury decided unanimously to recognize the work entitled “Provisions and Contingent Liabilities – What recognition and reporting by Portuguese companies?”.

CARME project wins 1st place in the European Enterprise Promotion Awards 2023

The project Link me up – 1000 ideas – Support system for the co-creation of innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship, promoted by the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, was awarded 1st place, at the national level, in the European Enterprise Promotion Awards 2023, in the category of “Promoting the Spirit of Entrepreneurship”. The project, led by Susana Rodrigues (PI) and with the participation of Ana Sargento, both CARME researchers, was funded by Compete 2020, Portugal 2020, European Union – European Social Fund. Carried out between 12/02/2021 and 30/06/2023, with a total investment value of almost 6 million euros, and involving a consortium of 13 partners, had the participation of 13,328 students, of which 313 were abroad, and 675 companies/organizations, of which 46 were international.

The project supported 1,706 ideas, developed 561,515 awareness-raising/training/demonstration actions aimed at young students and/or entrepreneurs, and created 21 companies. 1,269 young people/entrepreneurs who were covered by the project’s actions said that they wanted to create their own job/company, and 81% of young higher education students consider themselves more empowered.  The consortium included the polytechnics of: Bragança, Beja, Cávado e do Ave, Castelo Branco, Coimbra, Guarda, Leiria, Porto, Portalegre, Santarém, Tomar, Viana do Castelo, and Viseu.

The link me up – 1000 ideas project was developed along two distinct lines: Innovation Co-creation and Ideas Competition.

Co-creating innovation consists of setting up multidisciplinary teams of higher education students from different areas, companies/organizations, and teachers, as the “facilitators” of the process of co-creating innovation in the “cases”. The “cases”/challenges are real problems/challenges that companies/organizations place and for which answers are sought, to present suggestions and future strategic orientation.

Companies face legal, economic, social, technological, environmental, and international challenges every day, as well as uncertainty and change. It is in this context that the co-creation of innovation is important as a response to the challenges. Higher education students are the consumers/customers of the future and they can help companies to prepare and position themselves for this target, as well as for the trends and changes expected in organizations.

The Ideas Competition axis aims to develop a competition of ideas and business plans to select projects with entrepreneurial potential to create companies.

Study by member of CARME recognized as article with greater impact

Through a document review, Espinoza’s study (2023) [https://namibian-studies.com/index.php/JNS/article/view/966] focused on the production and publication of research articles related to SMEs and growth indicators, as listed in the Scopus database from 2017 to 2022.

The review identified 124 publications related to the study of SMEs and growth indicators. The knowledge area that contributed the most bibliographic material on SME management and growth indicators was Business, Administration, and Accounting, with 60 published documents.

The article considered to have the greatest impact was Santos, Eleonora, Rui Alexandre Castanho, and Daniel Meyer’s “Is Investment Contributing to Competitiveness in Nautical Tourism in the Atlantic Area?.” Water 14.19 (2022): 2964.

This article offers an original view on the relationship between investment, competitiveness, and economic growth in the nautical tourism sector, with a focus on the Atlantic Area during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study’s findings and analyses provide valuable knowledge for academics, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking to understand and increase the resilience and economic potential of the nautical tourism industry in the Atlantic Area.

This recognition of this impactful study further solidifies the CARME’s reputation as a center of excellence in terms of applied research.

Researcher from CARME interviewed by radio Cister

A study led by two researchers from CARME – Center for Applied Research in Management and Economics of the Polytechnic of Leiria, Eleonora Santos and Inês Lisboa, published in the journal Water, concludes that algae-based technology has the potential to reduce operational energy costs between 0.05-0.41 EUR/m3 and 15.4-180.8 EUR/inhabitant, compared to activated sludge and other conventional methods. This technology also allows the elimination of the carbon footprint, saving about 45 kg of CO2 per inhabitant per year. It was in this context that Eleonora Santos was interviewed by radio Cister.

The algae-based technology described in the study consists of high-rate algae ponds. «In these shallow ponds (typically with a depth between 30cm and 50cm), wastewater is circulated through a low power paddle wheel, removing organic residues and nutrients in short retention times (4 to 10 days), compared to systems of conventional ponds. These ponds have another advantage: that of providing the production of algae biomass that can be sold, increasing the profits of the Wastewater Treatment Plants», refers Eleonora Santos.

The study, which discusses technological and management aspects that lead to greater energy savings in Portuguese wastewater treatment plants, was developed in a multidisciplinary partnership with researchers from the University of Beira Interior and the Shannon Applied Biotechnology Center (Limerick Ireland).
