Description

The Voucher for Innovation and Productivity (VIP) program helps companies develop, implement and commercialize technical innovations by supporting partnerships between Ontario's industry and publicly funded post-secondary institutions. The OCE contributions are provided to the post-secondary institution. 



VIP projects are intended to generate economic benefit for companies in Ontario (including job creation/retention, new revenue generation, investment attraction, cost savings, value chain development), in the short-to-medium term (e.g. within three years of project completion). OCE funding will reach between $20,000 and $150,000 to the post-secondary institution (minimum $20,000 per year).
