Message from the President of the General Council

The Gaspar Frutuoso Foundation (FGF) was created by the University of the Azores (UAc) in March 1999, and formally recognized in 2000 through Ordinance No. 674/2000, of March 13, published in the 2nd Diário da República. series, n.º 92, of April 18th). In 2012, the Regional Government of the Azores recognized the status of public utility to the FGF.

Throughout its existence, the FGF has played a fundamental role in supporting the scientific and technological activity of the University of the Azores, managing a portfolio of research and service projects participated in and/or led by UAc professors and researchers.

Its young and increasingly qualified technical team has provided fundamental support to the UAc research units and an adequate and efficient response to the challenges and opportunities that the various funding programs, at regional, national and European level, have provided, working in articulation and complementarity with the science management structures of the University of the Azores.

Today, the FGF presents itself with a renewed image and has gained greater visibility in the community. It annually awards the Ana Neto prize to the best graduate in Biology, in memory of the professor and researcher who bore her name, who died prematurely, and has developed and supported some initiatives of a social and cultural nature, an action that should be reinforced in the coming years through the support for specific UAc projects.
