As part of our Colleges and Institutes Canada project to analyze Canada’s Applied Research ecosystem and map out the system, we will be attending both the March 6-8 CICan 2016 Applied Research Symposium and the annual Conference in May. This year’s annual conference is called Inspiration and it will be held on May 29 – May 31 in Quebec City. We will be sharing our findings, assessment and recommendations for the Applied Research ecosystem at this event.
