The Story

Alberta Innovates is putting fresh money into supporting Alberta’s small and medium-sized technology businesses and bolstering the province’s burgeoning technology ecosystem.

The first 15 projects selected through the Alberta Innovates Ecosystem Development Pilot Program have received more than $9.1 million in funding. Projects range from three-year cohort-based projects that directly help developing enterprises to short-term collaboration-building projects for technological hubs.

This pilot program makes investments in both for-profit and non-profit organizations.
