The project will support the development of intellectual property capacity within the firm.

The Firm will advance the development of its construction equipment access control solution by developing the design and production of a custom PCB and enclosure, expanding software’s feature set, enhancing system security, and testing scalability. This phase is crucial to transitioning from MVP to commercial readiness, ensuring the solution can be deployed efficiently at scale while maintaining robust security measures. Having secured funding from the Government of Newfoundland & Labrador Department of Industry, Trade and Technology for a significant portion of the project, this funding from NRC will help de-risk the cash-flows and accelerate the timeline for the project.

Tecium, a Toronto-based engineering SME, is advancing its EV telematics and cloud analytics platform through AI-enabled insights. This IRAP R&D project integrates AI large language models (LLMs) to analyze EV operational data, predict battery health, and optimize second-life battery applications. Key innovations include AI-driven failure prediction, warranty violation detection, and an automated API for assessing used EV value. The project benefits fleet operators, battery stakeholders, and used EV buyers while strengthening Tecium’s market position. By leveraging AI, Tecium enhances sustainability, efficiency, and decision-making in the EV ecosystem.

The project will support development of intellectual property capacity within the firm.

The project will explore the use of solvent in a novel way to recycle legacy composite components. By identifying the market requirements, we will refine our recycling system to ensure commercial viability. This project will build on our previously established innovative recycling processes developed for recyclable materials.

The project involves a technological visit a shellfish hatchery and nursery operation operated by Morecambe Bay Oysters in the region of Barrow-in-Furness, UK.  The projects seeks to study and understand their innovative continuous algae production system for potential to integrate this system into the firm's own shellfish nursery, currently in the design stage.  Further the visit will allow the firm to study the site's water treatment and heating system, which allows them to undetake early spring production

To provide technical employment for a youth in the field of water treatment.

The project aims to: i) enhance the capacity of the Museum to generate and utilize high-quality research on the Holodomor; ii) increase the management capacity of the Museum including in alignment with principles of GE, inclusion, and diversity; iii) strengthen the operational continuity and sustainability of the Museum; and iv) increase understanding and awareness, particularly among the international community of the Holodomor genocide, including its gendered impacts.

The objective of the EAF is to support community based projects across Canada that improve.accessibility, remove barriers, and enable Canadians with disabilities to participate in and contribute to their community.

The objectives of the Youth Employment and Skills Strategy Program (YESSP) are to help all youth navigate through the labour market and to successfully transition into sustained employment. These objectives are attained by supporting the needs of all youth, especially youth facing barriers to develop skills, knowledge and networks through education, skills development and meaningful work experiences.
