    From Sintra to Paris – and back https://heritage2019.sciencesconf.org/ • In October 2015, at the Sintra Entrepreneurial Council then at a financial boutique in Paris I focused on the combined potential of metropolitan areas as measured by OECD and regional economic integration partners of CPLP (Open economies in and around Portuguese-speaking countries: a metropolitan vantage point). • In the same spirit, I present to the Sintra Cultural and Opinion Councils a Paris Declaration on Heritage Science and Technology, which I signed last 14 February as member of the Scientific Advisory Committee from Academia das Ciências de Lisboa. • The narrative begins in Lisbon, 1986 because not only of Brussels but also of Cabo Verde and São Tomé... A 30 year partnership in Junqueira-Belém • Mário Soares’ first Presidential visit to Africa in 1986 led business leaders to create ELO, an association for economic development and cooperation with Portuguese- speaking countries, initially located at the Center for Social Economics of the Tropical Research Institute (IICT). • This public-private partnership was buoyed up by the creation in 1996 of CPLP, then new bylaws for IICT and the creation of the CPLP Business Council in 2004. • The partnership remains relevant, though IICT is now part of the new University of Lisbon and ELO of the Albina Assis Africano founder President of CPLP Portuguese Business Council.
