Collaborative Laboratories can be set up as private non-profit associations or companies, whose main objective is to create, directly and indirectly, qualified employment and scientific employment in Portugal through the implementation of research and innovation agendas aimed at creating economic and social value. CoLABs must respond to the challenge of densifying the national territory in terms of knowledge-based activities, by increasingly consolidating forms of collaboration between science, technology and higher education institutions and the economic and social fabric, namely companies, the hospital and health system, cultural institutions and social organizations.
