INNOV-R CALL FOR PROJECTS

This call for projects is intended to support innovation in the field of advanced materials by funding collaborative research projects with the potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Quebec. The program seeks to accelerate the development of advanced materials in Quebec and promote partnerships between industry and the research community (universities and CCTTs or public research centres) while supporting the advent of innovative solutions that can offer a practical approach to the major industrial challenge of reducing GHG emissions.

This call for projects provides for two types of funding applications based on the project’s technology readiness level (TRL).
