English term or phrase: wild card
"No contexto português e europeu, a indústria deve reforçar a cooperação com as universidades e com os centros de saber para assegurar a monitorização da fronteira tecnológica e o acompanhamento e vigilância a nível global. Para isso as instituições da indústria, especialmente a Cefamol e o Centimfe, serão instrumentais e poderão ser o "wild card" da indústria portuguesa, se esta souber reforçar ainda mais o espírito de cooperação num ambiente empresarial que cada vez será mais competitivo e desafiante."

literalmente "jóquer"


Explanation:
Neste contexto: "o elemento desconhecido" ou "trunfo desconhecido". Nenhuma destas expressões transmite o sentido totalmente mas acho que se aproximam - "ponto forte" está lá quase mas deixa de fora o importante factor "wild" ou, neste contexto, desconhecido. Espero que ajude!
