Financial support for technology innovations

Get a non-repayable contribution to develop, adopt or adapt new or improved technologies at any stage of innovation. If you’re a small or medium‑sized Canadian business pursuing technology‑driven innovation, you may be eligible for financial support from NRC IRAP.

NRC IRAP provides funding to support research and development projects at various stages of the innovation cycle. In 2018‑2019, NRC IRAP was mandated to expand its support to include an increased funding threshold of up to $10 million for larger research and development projects. This increased funding support will make it easier for small and medium‑sized Canadian businesses to access the support they need to grow and expand their companies.

If you meet the following criteria

• you are an incorporated, profit-oriented small or medium-sized business in Canada
• you have 500 or fewer full-time equivalent employees
• you plan to pursue growth and profit by developing and commercializing innovative, technology-driven new or improved products, services or processes in Canada
