Research Professional Support

We are proud to support our province’s many bright research professionals. We recognize the entire career pathway of researchers in both academic and industry settings, early or mature stage. The importance of talent development and having a group of highly skilled applied researchers is one of our province’s major resources. Our funding caters to a vast range of applied researches, from grad students starting out, industry reps using R&D, to advance their business and senior faculty members looking to embrace new avenues of applied research. Because we recognize the importance of salary contributions that are not tied to specific projects, we have three funding opportunities.
