University of Sintra-Cascais

The [b]University of Sintra-Cascais[/b] is a public-private research university divided in Sintra and Cascais in Portugal. It was founded in 2010 by the signature of a treaty between the Portuguese Government and the Lied Van Liedjes Company.

History
After it's influences in Sports, Lied Van Liedjes wanted to create a place for education for everyone to get in superior education degrees to work in areas that were in some way related to the company's projects. They first started, between 2003 and 2007, a first draft of the project in the Netherlands, trying to have a place in Zwolle. The LVL Zwolle College was founded, but due to the lack of interest, the project was abandonend and the school was transfered to the Dutch Government. The wish of having a sponsored university continued, so LVL approached Portugal, and, in 2010, a University with schools divided in Sintra, Cascais and other areas of the region. The headquarters would be built in Sintra.
