Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Creative Applications for Sustainable Technology Inc.

$50,000.00

Building new sustainability-related SaaS businesses using the existing information management platform.

FY 2018-19 · 2018-10-01

Summary
A successful business has been built selling subscriptions that allow organizations to efficiently collect and manage solid waste and recycling data using the Re-TRAC Connect software platform. There are, however, many other sustainability-related and socially-oriented industries and sectors that could benefit from a web-based service that can improve the efficiency of how information is collected and managed. Our goal is to identify and target opportunities in these other sectors and build viable businesses by adapting the software to address their needs.
