Synopsis: Each year the Canadian Government provides over $7 billion in innovation funding for small- and medium-sized businesses in various industries including but not limited to manufacturing, digital media, plastics and chemicals, food processing, biotechnology, and aerospace.
Our Regional Manager for Western Canada, Jaap Siekman, will be hosting the seminar together with Erik Kaas, the Innovation Advisor for the National Research Council of Canada (NRC-IRAP) Concierge Service. Together, they will cover a range of government grants and funding programs including the National Research Council’s Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP), the Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Tax Credit Program and the Agri-Innovation Program among others.
