International Co-Innovation Action Program (ICAP) project. Areto Labs is an A.I. powered social media content moderation software company.

One of the goals is to explore ideal ways to communicate value to growers and OEM partners during the critical Spring and Fall sales windows. This project will directly support measurable commercial outcomes through targeted campaigns, content, and lead nurturing activities aimed at driving new leads and converting >10% to paying clients.

Barreleye is building an "Operations" suite of functionality which will empower teams to plan, execute, and adapt water logistics in real time—ensuring water is delivered on time, cost-effectively, and without risk. Hydraulics will balance pressure, rates, and pump efficiency, while minimizing capital costs. Generic job management will ensure clear communication between field teams, vendors, and headquarters via Firm's mobile app. Which will ensure live updates on water movements, allowing for on-the-fly adjustments to prevent downtime. By digitizing execution workflows and integrating real-time data, Barreleye Operations provides the control and confidence needed to keep water operations running smoothly, efficiently, and on budget

This proof-of-concept feasibility study aims to establish a DNA-free genome-editing system in chickpea, a vital legume crop known for its nutritional value and significant nitrogen-fixing capacity. The Project will be conducted over 12 months, focusing on the selection of target genes, design and synthesis of guide RNAs, and optimization of transformation protocols.

The NRC has created human amniotic fluid-derived iPSCs (HAF-iPSCs) to produce functional T cells for adoptive therapies. This Project aims to validate and optimize the differentiation of HAF-iPSCs into CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, evaluating their performance against established iPSC lines. To facilitate evaluation of therapeutic potential, an in vitro microcontact printing platform will be developed for high-throughput characterization of iPSC-T cells' ligand binding responses and cytokine release profiles. Additionally, the Project will explore using self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) and NRC’s lipid nanoparticle technology to deliver CARs, targeting BCMA for blood cancers and EGFR for solid tumors, ensuring stable expression and functionality across various cell lines.

Build a system that interfaces with data streams that will optimize systems merchandising performance.

The firm is developing a real-time analysis platform designed to help innovators navigate complex technical industries, such as biotechnology. This project aims to help build out the solution's data pipeline and AI models.

To develop an AI-enabled goal setting feature with tasks and metrics integration.

The purpose of this CanExport Innovation agreement is to support Canadian organizations to carry out activities related to pursuing opportunities that would lead to establishing new collaborative Research and Development (R&D) partnerships between the Recipient and foreign organizations in order to support R&D on the Recipient’s technology and advance its commercialization.

The Project will support pilot testing of AI strategies, determine target architecture and quantitative technical objectives for implementation of an AI solution.
