Programs

GreenCentre Canada’s Chemical Industry Mobilization Program now links industry and academic researchers.  Through CIMP, industry sponsors become  collaborators in assessing and developing promising Green Chemistry technologies. At the same time, the centre will deepen its understanding of specific industry problems and opportunities -- knowledge that will inform the criteria for identifying and selecting early-stage technologies for development. The nature of the selection process will be communicated across Canada’s academic community as a means of raising awareness of the opportunity to undertake problem- and opportunity-specific fundamental research programs. 

Benefits to Industry Sponsors include:

  • Canada’s first all-inclusive resource for linking industry problems with potential Green solutions generated by researchers nation-wide
  • Enhanced ability to accelerate the commercialization of promising Green Chemistry innovations
  • One-stop access to de-risked, value-added Green Chemistry solutions
  • Opportunities for industry to explore emerging and non-core markets without diverting resources from core activities
  • Reduced university-liaison costs by pooling expertise and resources
