NOVA, the Ministry of Culture and THU launch project for students in the creative industries

The protocol aims to stimulate artistic creation in the digital domain.

NOVA University Lisbon has established a partnership with the Ministry of Culture and Trojan Horse Was a Unicorn (THU) to promote digital creative industries in Portugal.

The collaboration protocol, which was signed today, July 15, aims to stimulate artistic creation in the digital domain, give visibility and new opportunities to students and young artists, stimulating interest and access to training in this area.

According to the Rector of NOVA, Professor João Sàágua, "The NOVA University Lisbon could not fail to be associated with a project that has in its genesis innovation, the capture and retention of talent and the commitment to social inclusion. These are also strategic pillars of NOVA: a university open to the community, without frontiers, whose mission is to serve society through knowledge".

In order to develop this strategy to stimulate creative dynamism, the establishment of the partnership had the simultaneous launch of the Talent League Portugal, a challenge for young people between the ages of 18 and 25.
