This multistakeholder governance and membership model enables a more efficient and flexible participation of the various actors interested which contribute to the growth and development of the top level domain of Portugal.

Corporate Social Responsibility[edit | edit source]

One of the missions of the .PT is to support initiatives that translate into the development of actions to promote and disseminate the internet at a national level, such as 3em1.pt and sitestar.pt.

With the 3em1 initiative it is assigned to those who create a company, association or branch on the hour, ENH, which is a government initiative, a package of free services, for a period of one year, which includes a domain registered under .pt, a website development tool and hosting and e-mail boxes. 3em1 extends to other initiatives outside the scope of the ENH, taking the form of a voucher to be assigned to individuals or entities to be defined.

Sitestar.pt is a contest that aims to challenge young Portuguese students to develop original websites with content in Portuguese and under the .PT domain. The contest was born from a partnership with DECO Jovem, meanwhile extended to partners that are members of the DNS.PT Advisory Board. Sitestar.pt is aimed at young people between 14 and 18 years, privileging the school context as a motivating element for the participation of students and teachers.

We also support other initiatives such as the Show of Unknown Authors contest, Apps for Good initiative, ITPro community events, Tuga IT event, Acredita Portugal entrepreneurship contests, Volta a Portugal event, Terry Fox - Portuguese League Against Cancer and Portugal Digital Week.
