SUMMARY:NSERC Alliance and Ontario Centre of Innovation – Collaborate 2 Commercialize Joint Info Session
DESCRIPTION:In partnership, NSERC Alliance grant and OCI’s Collaborate 2 Commercialize will support post-secondary R&amp;D collaborations with the highest potential for regional economic development and commercialization in Ontario.



Individual proposals can request at least $20,000 up to $30,000 from NSERC (Alliance grant) and at least $20,000 up to $30,000 from OCI C2C, with a corresponding $20,000 to $30,000 from the industry partner (at least 50% must be cash provided to the academic institution). The streamlined joint application and decision process enables companies to quickly undertake new research collaborations with Ontario-based researchers and have their cash contribution leveraged by both NSERC and OCI. The mutually beneficial projects are expected to result in economic benefits to the company and to Ontario and build impactful longer-term collaborations between the researcher and the company.
