Services
The service provided by the Canadian Innovation Centre is guiding your innovation to the market. Using our Commercialization Roadmap, we are Canada's go-to-market squad. We have three areas of focus:
| RESEARCH | TRAINING & EDUCATION | CONSULTING |
|
We work with inventors, engineers, scientists and investors on both pre-revenue and post-revenue innovations to conduct market focused research with the intent to provide strategic vision and promote tactical insight on the Commercialization Roadmap. Projects are targeted at specific stages of the commercialization path to enable the innovator and investor to make the appropriate critical commitments at the right time. |
CIC offers events that educate inventors and entrepreneurs with their business building and assessment of their innovation. These include webinars and seminars, customized workshops as well as curriculum development and intern programs. We continue to be involved at the inventor, entrepreneur, investor, government staff and graduate levels. |
As could be expected with any organization so heavily involved in research and education for over 30 years, the CIC engages in a variety of purpose-driven consulting with entrepreneurs, investors, government and corporations. The CIC’s Innovators Assistance Program (IAP) offers early stage new ventures guidance through early business hurdles. |
