O Tourism of Portugal has announced the launch of the 2nd Edition of the Luís Patrão Scholarship. This funding is to support higher-level academic, technical and executive training and is designed for young people up to the age of 35, with academic or technical-professional backgrounds, who want to strengthen their knowledge and develop strategic skills for the sector.
The Luís Patrão Scholarship offers scholarships for specialisation for postgraduate studies.
