Software development project to develop an AI Assisted Trading and Investing Guide that provides individual investors with a tool that combines machine learning and statistical modeling to assist them in making informed decisions about public stock trades and investments.

Sawback Technologies will continue development of their next generation ground-penetrating radar sensor, and continue research and development of their geospatial clustering analytics software.

Development of an MVP (minimal viable product) software product for support of dispute resolutions and negotiations with one numerical issue, usually money.

As part of the development of 'Thermo-mechanical pyrolysis' of methane, Turquoise Hydrogen (TH) is currently conducting 'proof of concept research' at University of Saskatchewan (UofS) in Chemical & Biological Engineering department. The research is conducted by Dr. Biswajit Saha, a MITACS funded postdoc under the supervision of Dr. A Dalai. While assessing the effectiveness of mechanical scraping of catalytic surface for catalyst regeneration, it is identified that development of a suitable catalyst formulation which favors value-added carbon products would be immensely valuable for the project. Hence, TH would like to hire a fresh graduate to work with the research group at UofS in the development of an optimum catalyst formulation.

RFINE Biomass Solutions Inc. is developing processing technology to upcycle spent coffee grounds into value-added food ingredients.

The essence of this project is to undertake engineering, design, installation and commissioning of innovative new equipment and lean processes, which will lead to an expansion in annual honey production throughput while reducing cost of goods and increasing revenue potential.

International Co-innovation Action Program (ICAP) project. The aim of this project is to enable the firm to find one or more co-innovation partners producing primary aluminum, as well as a second partner who will support it in identifying the technological adaptations needed to deploy its aluminum residue management technology in one of the target European territories.

Through thoughtful development and optimization, a fully developed testing and analytics program will allow us to provide a comprehensive suite of QA and R&D services to our clients effectively reducing the time it takes to bring their state-of-the-art products and innovations to the Canadian market.

Build a desktop version of the firm’s current Smartphone App with Python instead of Android. It will use a server-based database of images and implement 3 image processing algorithms.

Development, integration, and the laboratory testing of a robotic drawer harvesting unit that will validate automatic picking, sorting, and placement of fresh mushrooms. This will be accomplished through the seamless integration of the Mycionics robotic harvesting unit and the drawer harvesting platform from the Christiaens Group. Both companies intend on reducing the overall cost of mushroom harvesting, while increasing efficiency and productivity.
