110 histórias, 110 objetos (110 anos do Técnico)

Inaugurated in November 2000, the Técnico Taguspark campus is one of the main pillars of a dream born in the late 1980s and pursued by two former Técnico professors: to create a tech park that housed new tech companies, teaching, research and the new ideas of young students. The scale model, whose shape resembles a sextant, with a central roundabout and interconnected radial and circular buildings, has only seen a small part built. But that didn’t stop the campus from being fundamental for the improvement of teaching and research at Técnico over the last 22 years.
