Abstract
The relationship between the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS) and the Brazilian industry started at the very early stages of the laboratory in the mid-1980s when the project proposal was submitted to the Brazilian government. Factors such as the relatively small size of the project, and the uniqueness and level of complexity of the technological challenges raised by the LNLS developers kept the Brazilian industry involved within a few areas. As a result, LNLS was led during the 1990s to dedicate in-house resources to internally develop more components and systems than initially expected and the LNLS staff established expertise in several critical areas for the success of the synchrotron facility construction and operation. Therefore what seemed initially to be a difficulty ended up being the driving force for fruitful industrial development projects bringing together LNLS and Brazilian companies.
