Program Name
Collaborative Science, Technology and Innovation Program – Ideation Fund
Program Name (French)
Programme de collaboration en science, en technologie et en innovation – Fonds d’idéation
Program Purpose
The Ideation Fund is intended to encourage, test and validate transformative research ideas generated by teams of NRC scientific personnel and external collaborators with complementary capabilities, acting as a demonstration phase for a continually-evolving suite of research and development (R&D) deliverables at the NRC. The fund supports exploratory research through two mechanisms: the New Beginnings Initiative and the Small Teams Initiative.
Program Purpose (French)
Le Fonds d’idéation vise à encourager, à mettre à l’essai et à valider les idées de recherche transformatrice des équipes scientifiques du CNRC et des collaborateurs externes dotés de capacités complémentaires. Il servira ainsi de plateforme de démonstration d’une série de produits livrables en matière de recherche-développement (R-D) en constante évolution au CNRC. Le Fonds appuie la recherche exploratoire au moyen de deux mécanismes : l’Initiative « Nouveaux débuts » et l’Initiative « Petites équipes ».
