Building on the success of the Alberta-Germany Collaboration Fund for Product Development and Commercialization (established in 2012) and the Alberta-Canada-France Joint Industrial R&D Projects Program (established in 2015), the German-Canadian Centre for Innovation and Research and the Alberta Government’s Ministry of Economic Development and Trade introduced the Alberta-Europe Technology Collaboration Fund in February 2018.
- The overarching goal of this program is to help participants become more globally competitive by developing innovative technologies and research based alliances with the potential to foster international trade and economic growth. Further goals include: connecting industry players and researchers across multiple jurisdictions; development of new models of collaboration between Alberta and France that leverage key research & technology capabilities; addressing common priorities, and accelerate the commercialization of technology; launching revolutionary product development and commercialization projects that aim to bring new products and services to market; delivering economic benefits to citizens and business people in both jurisdictions.
