Are you an Innovator with a market-ready technology looking for your first buyer?
The Canadian Innovation Commercialization Program (CICP) helps Canadian businesses get their innovative products and services to the marketplace by giving them the opportunity to propose their own first contract for their technology to be used within a Government of Canada department or agency. Successful companies with pre-commercial innovations are awarded contracts valued up to $500,000 through an open, transparent, competitive and fair procurement process.
The CICP targets companies with innovations in four priority areas, Environment, Safety and security, Health, and Enabling technologies, who can demonstrate the following:
- The innovation is an advance on the state of the art
- They have the financial capacity, management team, and IP strategy to commercialize the innovation
- The innovation has not been sold commercially and is at Technology Readiness Level 7-9
