Mitacs-Accelerate is Canada's premiere research internship program. It connects companies with over 50 research-based universities through graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, who apply their specialized expertise to business research challenges. Interns transfer their skills from theory to real-world application, while the companies gain a competitive advantage by accessing high-quality research expertise.

Mitacs and SOSCIP are partnering together to bring Ontario-based companies our collective resources. For more information, please contact cleantech@soscip.org or visit www.soscip.org/cleantech.
