Innovation is seen as a competitive advantage that many companies use to ensure the continuity and success of your business.NP 4457:2007 is the Portuguese norm that supports management, based on a model of innovation backed up by interfaces and interaction between technical/scientific knowledge, its specific mechanisms and the overall society.Our paper aims to analyse innovation activities and the involvement of human resources in Portuguese firms certified by NP4457 and associated to the implementation of Research, Development, and Innovation (RD&I) management systems. We have collected the data through IPAC’s database, using a survey administered to all firms.Our results suggest the existence of a Human Resources (HR) involvement policy, customers and suppliers. The involvement of stakeholders with innovation activities results of its acceptance as a mechanism able to generate wealth, with benefits for both firms and the community.

When the objectives and the parameters of JET were defined about ten years ago, the existing knowledge of plasma behaviour in tokamaks showed the advantages of the axial symmetry of magnetic configuration, as well as the leading role of the plasma current in heat confinement. After two years of operation, JET has proved to be the world’s most successful device in thermonuclear fusion research. Whereas achievement of the final aim (i.e. the confinement of plasma with temperature and density such that thermonuclear power dominates the heat losses) has never been nearer, results show that plasma behaviour is even more complex than initially anticipated and nonlinear physics, leading to turbulence or chaos, is involved. How this is likely to modify the JET programme is addressed, as well as the prospects for a future reactor.
