Ovatek "Safe Haven Liferafts" have been saving lives since 1998.
The Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP) is designed to help Canadian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) meet the technological challenges they face in delivering new products, processes or services. Our goal is to enhance your innovation capacity, so that you may turn good ideas into profitable business lines as quickly as possible. Each year, we help more than 12,000 SMEs grow and prosper. Maybe NRC-IRAP can help you too, if:
- Your business is incorporated and profit-oriented
- Your enterprise has fewer than 500 employees
- You have the desire to enhance the innovation capability of your company
If you answered yes to all of those questions, NRC-IRAP may just be what you're looking for! NRC-IRAP offers advisory services as well as potential access to financial assistance.
For information on NRC-IRAP, or to reach an Industrial Technology Advisor (ITA), please contact the NRC-IRAP regional office nearest to you by calling our toll-free number (1-877-994-4727) which will automatically connect you with the appropriate regional office.
"NRC-IRAP's contribution to the Ovatek project was significant. Without their advice and financial support for innovation and the moral support we reveiced from our ITA the Ovatek project would never have got off the ground."
