On 18 April, Técnico welcomed more than 3,300 visitors for its Open Day, opening the campus to students, families, parents, and children curious about science, engineering, and life at Instituto Superior Técnico.

LISAT took part in the Science Fair, alongside other departments and institutes at IST. Throughout the day, our team presented the LISAT project, explained the mission behind our nanosatellite, and shared how students from different engineering fields are contributing to Portuguese innovation in space.

The event was also an opportunity to connect with future university students and show how space projects can bring together communication systems, electronics, software, structures, operations, and teamwork in a real engineering challenge.

“The perfect place to spark the interest of a new generation in space.”

— João Souto, Head of Communication Systems We would like to thank Instituto Superior Técnico for organizing this initiative and everyone who visited our stand. Days like this remind us why LISAT exists: to bring curious students closer to space engineering and to help build the future of the Portuguese space sector.
