He created in 2003 the Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI Research Laboratory of UM, elevated in January 2011 to State Key Laboratory (SKLAB) of China (the 1st in Engineering in Macao), being its Founding Director. He was the Chair of UMTEC (UM company) from January 2009 to March 2019, supporting the incubation and creation in 2018 of Digifluidic, the first UM Spin-Off, whose CEO is a SKLAB PhD graduate. He was also a co-founder of Chipidea Microelectronics (Macao) [later Synopsys-Macao, and now Akrostar, where the CEO is one of his Ph.D graduates] in 2001/2002.

Rui Martins was Founding Chair of IEEE Macau Section (2003-2005) and IEEE Macau Joint-Chapter on Circuits And Systems (CAS) / Communications (COM) (2005-2008) [2009 World Chapter of the Year of IEEE CAS Society (CASS)], General Chair IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on CAS - APCCAS'2008, Vice-President (VP) Region 10 (Asia, Australia and Pacific) (2009-2011) and VP-World Regional Activities and Membership of IEEE CASS (2012-2013), Associate-Editor of IEEE Transactions on CAS II: Express Briefs (2010-2013), nominated Best Associate Editor (2012-2013). He is a member of the Advisory Board of the Journal of Semiconductors of the Chinese Institute of Electronics (CIE), Institute of Semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences, since January 2021, and a Fellow of the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligent Association since October 2021. He was also member of IEEE CASS Fellow Evaluation Committee in 2013, 2014 & 2019, and was appointed as the Chair of the committee (2018) and Vice-Chair (2021 & 2022); IEEE Nominating Committee of Division I Director (CASS/EDS/SSCS) (2014); and IEEE CASS Nominations Committee (2016-2017). In addition, he was General Chair of ACM/IEEE Asia South Pacific Design Automation Conference - ASP-DAC'2016, receiving the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA) Outstanding Service Award in 2016, and also General Chair of the IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference - A-SSCC 2019. He was Vice-President (2005-2014), President (2014-2017) and now again Vice-President (2021-2024) of the Association of Portuguese Speaking Universities (AULP), in September 2021, AULP nominated him as an Honorary Member. Rui Martins received 3 Macao Government decorations: the Medal of Professional Merit (Portuguese-1999); the Honorary Title of Value (Chinese-2001) and the Medal of Merit in Education (Chinese-2021).
