Grants and Contributions

Ionada will develop, optimize, and fabricate an advanced high-efficiency Hollow Fiber Membrane Contactor (HFMC) for integration into a one-tonne-per-day (1 TPD) pilot-scale industrial demonstration. The project aims to enhance CO2 capture performance, energy efficiency, and system reliability through next-generation HFMC design and validation. The improved module will undergo continuous operational testing to confirm its robustness under industrial conditions, supporting future deployments at customer sites.

The project will focus on the development of dual-use edge-based medical data aggregation system for patient monitoring in battlefield and austere medical environments.

Commercial Bioenergy (CBE) is a Canadian startup developing a conversion system to optimize bioenergy and heat generation for remote, rural, and First Nations communities. The project focuses on safely integrating cheaper, local, heterogeneous biomass, therefore reducing energy costs.

The purpose of this CanExport SMEs agreement is to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for activities related to export market development that are part of an export business case for a specific target market, particularly where activities are targeting departmental priority markets and sectors.

This project will test hypotheses and experiment with new mechanisms to design a repeatable and scalable business process, which may result in new business methods for foreign market entry.

Phaseshift Technologies will develop a new 3D-printable hot-work tool steel for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), enabling Canadian die casters and toolmakers to 3D print inserts for High-Pressure Die Casting. Using the company's Rapid Alloy Design (RAD™) platform, the project will design candidate alloys, validate them through experimental trials, and benchmark performance against industry-defined targets.

EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc. is conducting research and development to design, develop, test, automate, and advance proprietary geophysical technologies or systems aimed at making critical mineral exploration faster, lower-cost, and less environmentally disruptive than conventional methods.

Development of a pulsed plasma impulse reactor that has a high signal strength and broad band frequency response.

The devices physical form factor, liquid media and electrical circuit parameters are to be modelled as a system, in an AI/machine learning environment to optimize the parameters for generating a high quality seismic signal.

SCOOTY is developing a prototype system of an AI transit intelligence platform to test and validate the features and functionality of the technology as a BETA solution that will lead to provincial-wide paid pilot opportunities.

This project advances the commercialization of an AI‑enabled assistant that transforms natural language into structured, executable scenarios for simulation, training, and decision‑support environments. The work focuses on improving reliability, performance, and integration to enable deployment at scale.
