Ontario Centres of Excellence (OCE) drives the development of Ontario’s economy by helping create new jobs, products, services, technologies and businesses. In partnership with industry and academia, OCE co-invests to commercialize innovation originating in the province’s colleges, universities and research hospitals. In the 2010–2011 fiscal year OCE invested $21.1 million in 477 research, commercialization and talent projects and leveraged $40.7 million from industry partners.
The heart of OCE is its ability to work directly with academia and industry to bring prospective partners together to turn ideas into income. Together, they work through OCE’s tailored programs to commercialize innovations, transfer technologies and develop promising talent. OCE’s Centre for Commercialization of Research complements and extends OCE’s research, talent and commercialization programs.
