Getting the support for your innovative business is 3 easy steps
STEP 1 – Identify your local Innovation Centre
Regional Innovation Centres (aka RICs) are located across the Province. You should connect with the one nearest you. They can hep you identify local, provincial, and national resources to support your business. Click the map to identify your RIC.
STEP 2 – Identify RICs with specializations that support you
While some RICs are not local to your business, they may have resources specific to you. That could be audience specific programming, industry resources, or academic research partners. Browse all RICs.
STEP 3 – Browse the Resources available.
Our resources section lists resources in and outside of your region. While your local RIC may have the services you require, others may have sector specific programming, or audience specific programs that can support you. Visit our Resource Directory.
