It was in April 12, 1992 that Universidade de Aveiro, Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Coimbra and Correios e Telecomunicações de Portugal signed a notary deed to launch Instituto de Telecomunicações, with a 7.5 million Euro grant from JNICT. This was the on-set of a challenging journey to bring together existing telecommunications expertise that was scattered through different groups in Portugal and build a solid institution aiming to become a reference in the field. A series of local events will be held at all sites and branches of IT to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Information about those events will be regularly updated in this webpage.
