The Madeira Interactive Technologies Institute (Madeira-ITI) is a not-for-profit innovation institute of the University of Madeira, founded by the University of Madeira, Madeira Tecnopolo, and Carnegie Mellon University. The institute was created in December 2009 in order to provide a home for the many collaborations between these partners, in both research and education.

M-ITI and its founding organisations

The work of the institute mainly concentrates on innovation in the areas of computer science and human-computer interaction.

Organisation
