Canadian Centre for the Innovation Economy
Improving Canada’s innovation performance
Canada has a highly educated workforce and strong research capability but fails to turn these advantages into commercial success and innovation-based economic growth. This problem is known as Canada’s innovation paradox.
The Canadian Centre for the Innovation Economy (CCIE) brings together Canadian innovation hubs, institutions, entrepreneurs, governments, corporate partners, and investors to research critical issues facing the innovation community and deliver data-driven insights to decision-makers.
