Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Quebec ApplicantsQuebec's unique cultural and economic landscape presents distinct opportunities for growth and development through targeted grant funding. As a recipient of grants up to $155,000 from the Foundation, Quebec-based universities and educational institutions can drive entrepreneurial developments that foster innovation and prosperity. This section outlines the priority outcomes for Quebec applicants, highlighting the key areas of focus that align with the province's strengths and challenges.### Driving Economic Growth through InnovationQuebec's economy is characterized by a strong presence of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly in the technology and manufacturing sectors. The Ministère de l'Économie et de l'Innovation, a key state agency, plays a vital role in supporting entrepreneurship and innovation. To drive economic growth, the Foundation prioritizes projects that promote the development of new products, services, and processes, particularly in areas such as clean technology and artificial intelligence. For instance, initiatives that leverage Quebec's expertise in aerospace and aeronautics can lead to the creation of new industries and job opportunities. The geographic diversity of Quebec, from the densely populated Montreal region to the vast territories of Nord-du-Québec, also presents opportunities for regional development and innovation.One of the key priority outcomes for Quebec applicants is the creation of new entrepreneurial ecosystems that bring together academia, industry, and government. By fostering collaboration and knowledge transfer, these ecosystems can help drive the commercialization of research and development, leading to the creation of new businesses and jobs. The Foundation is particularly interested in supporting projects that target the needs of underrepresented groups, such as women and Indigenous peoples, in entrepreneurship and innovation.### Enhancing Regional Development and CooperationQuebec's unique cultural and linguistic heritage, combined with its geographic location, makes it an important hub for international cooperation and regional development. The province shares borders with Ontario and the U.S. states of New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, creating opportunities for cross-border collaboration and trade. To enhance regional development, the Foundation prioritizes projects that promote cooperation between Quebec-based institutions and their counterparts in other regions, particularly in areas such as clean technology and sustainable development.The Société de développement économique du Québec (SODES), a regional economic development agency, plays a key role in promoting economic development in the province. By partnering with SODES and other regional organizations, Quebec applicants can access a network of resources and expertise that can help drive the success of their projects. The Foundation is particularly interested in supporting projects that promote regional development in areas such as the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region, which is characterized by a strong presence of SMEs and a growing innovation sector.### Measuring Success and ImpactTo ensure the effective use of grant funding, the Foundation requires Quebec applicants to establish clear metrics for measuring the success and impact of their projects. This includes tracking outcomes such as the number of new businesses created, the number of jobs generated, and the level of private sector investment attracted. By prioritizing outcomes-based evaluation, the Foundation can ensure that grant funding is allocated to projects that drive real economic and social benefits for Quebec.Q: What types of projects are eligible for funding under this grant program in Quebec?A: Projects that drive entrepreneurial developments, promote innovation, and foster regional development are eligible for funding. Examples include initiatives that support the creation of new businesses, the development of new products and services, and the enhancement of entrepreneurial ecosystems.Q: How can Quebec-based applicants access support and resources to help with the application process?A: Applicants can access support and resources through various organizations, including the Ministère de l'Économie et de l'Innovation and regional economic development agencies such as SODES.Q: What is the expected timeline for the grant review and approval process?A: The Foundation reviews grant applications on an annual basis, with application deadlines typically occurring in the spring.
