Description: |
This program helps commercialize promising life sciences and medical technology intellectual property (IP) developed at Ontario publicly funded academic research institutions (universities, colleges, research hospitals). The goal is to deliver substantial and sustainable economic benefits to Ontario (e.g. jobs, sales) through newly created Ontario-based companies founded on this IP, or by licensing the IP to an existing Ontario-based company for incremental growth opportunities. Applicants must have matching cash and/or in-kind equal to the amount of 25% of the total requested investment at the time of application. This matching can come from internal and external sources such as institutions, prospective customers/end-users/suppliers, friends/family, federal grants, or industry partners. |
