On the 2nd of January, INESC Porto’s Legal Service
integrated a Law trainee on their team.
Carla Sofia Melo graduated in Law from the Faculty of Law of
Universidade Católica Portuguesa – Centro Regional do Porto
in 2003. In that same institution she post-graduated in
Contracts Law and during 2005 she was a trainee-lawyer.
The Legal Service opened a traineeship because INESC Porto
felt the need to implement a Manual of Intellectual Property
as well as to temporarily reinforce the area of legal
support, given that Graça Barbosa, DIL’s coordinator, will
have to intensify the coordination in this department
because some people are absent on maternity leave.
The traineeship’s major objective is the legal branch of the
implementation of the Manual of Intellectual Property, but
it will also include work that supports the regular
functioning of the Legal Service and, therefore, the
cooperation in the response to the several solicitations
made to this service.
When questioned about her expectations regarding the
traineeship, Carla Melo states: “As for my traineeship in
the legal service, most of all I expect to develop my
abilities and competences in the context of the work of an
institution related to investigation activities.
She goes on to say “Besides, I believe I will deepen and
solidify knowledge in several areas, namely in Intellectual
Property, Contracts, Company, Trade and Labour Law. I hope I
can contribute to the smooth functioning of INESC Porto and
aid in their activities, not only with the legal issues but
also with any other matter or project. And I want to take
this chance to thank this Institution for the excellent
reception!”
