SUMMARY:Ontario Centre of Innovation (OCI) Collaborate 2 Commercialize (C2C) Program Information Session
DESCRIPTION:OCI’s Collaborate 2 Commercialize&nbsp;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&nbsp;up to $150,000&nbsp;from OCI C2C, with a corresponding $20,000 to $150,000 from the industry partner (at least 50% must be cash provided to the academic institution). The streamlined application and decision process enables companies to quickly undertake new research collaborations with Ontario-based researchers and have their cash contribution leveraged by OCI. The mutually beneficial projects are expected to result in economic benefits to the company and Ontario and build impactful longer-term collaborations between the researcher and the company.
