Production Transformation Policy Review
Spotlight on the Azores’ Internationalisation
Located in the mid-Atlantic, the archipelagos of the Azores is an autonomous region
of Portugal and an European Union Outermost Region. Once central to global trade routes,
the Azores are aspiring to regain a prominent international role by leveraging their
unique geographical, natural and historical attributes. To that end, this Production
Transformation Policy Review (PTPR) Spotlight identifies priority actions in several
areas, including scientific research and collaborations, the ocean economy, agro-food
and renewable-energy value chains. It shows the importance for EU Outermost Regions,
as well as for Small Island Developing States (SIDS), of building resilient international
ties. It benefited from an extensive peer review process involving public and private
stakeholders from Brazil, Iceland and the United States.
