QXote is a Portugal-based social enterprise committed to sustainable development through education, innovation, and applied research. Working alongside Dutch and Portuguese universities, we design and test solutions for regenerative land use and biodiversity restoration in the Alentejo region.

The goal of the SAISIME project, is to create an intelligent, self-sustainable irrigation system that optimizes water use for food production in dry regions like the Alentejo. Combining sensor technology, renewable energy, and data science with an educational, multi-disciplinary approach, the project serves as a living lab where students, researchers, and communities co-develop scalable solutions for sustainable agriculture and rural innovation.
