The Canada - California Strategic Innovation Partnership (CCSIP) is an important element of the Canadian and Californian science and technology agendas.
Peter Van Loan, the Canadian Minister of International Trade, recently announced 15 research initiatives of cooperation with the Government of California, which "will help move ideas from the laboratory to the real world, and will contribute to a cleaner environment and improved healthcare."
Minister Van Loan continued, "Our joint projects will lead to advances in many fields, from carbon storage and new biofuels to energy-efficient computers and better border crossings."
Nine of the 15 initiatives are collaborative events and six are research and development projects. They involve 21 Canadian universities in partnership with eight University of California campuses.
