The Regional Science and Technology Fund is an organism with administrative and financial autonomy of the Regional Government of the Azores, under the supervision of the Vice-Presidency of the Government.

The establishment of the FRCT as a coordination and management body for scientific research and technological development funding, by the Regional Legislative Decree no. 5/2001/A on March 21, granted the FRCT legal personality and administrative and financial independence.

Over the past twenty years, the European and international science and technology funding landscape has undergone significant changes. Similarly, the FRCT has evolved its approach to attracting European Research & Innovation (R&I) funding to the region.

In response to these changes, the Regional Government of the Azores has provided the FRCT with a new legal framework, as set out in Regional Legislative Decree no. 6-2020-A and Regional Regulatory Decree No. 2021-08-16, which strengthen the FRCT’s organic structure and operations.

The FRCT’s high involvement in European programmes aimed at funding various areas of science and technology has consolidated its role as a fundamental entity in the process of internationalizing the Azores’ R&I ecosystem, thus strengthening the position of the Azores in the European Research, Development and Innovation Area.

The new organizational framework of FRCT, adopted in the first semester of 2022, under the Vice-Presidency of the Regional Government of the Azores, has strengthened its cooperation and transversal attributions with the other government departments, as well as its collaboration with homologous national and international entities.
