Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Clinical grade genome engineering of CAR-T cells
953930
The main goal of this work is to create a made-in-Canada clinical ready approach for genome editing of CAR-T for cancer immunotherapy. The project aims to enhance the potency of single-domain antibody (sdAb) targeted CAR-Ts being developed by the Cell and Gene Therapy program, through site specific integration into rationally selected gene loci under conditions that are conducive to GMP CAR-T manufacture.

SmartQool - Cooling Energy Reduction for Mission Critical Facilities
954179
Ever increasing data growth due to the changing market dynamics (work from home due to COVID-19, 5G and IoT connections etc.) is significantly impacting the energy utilization and its resulting costs for medium data centers (>2000 racks and <10000 racks) as well as for large data centers (>10000 racks). Cooling energy consumption is currently the second largest cost driver for such data centers. Our solution will provide an AI & Machine Learning based solution, that will continuously sync up all the cooling equipment (including CRAC units, HVACs, Chillers etc.) at the data centers to optimize the air flow and the equipment utilization thus resulting in ~25%+ cooling energy cost reduction.

“ALPHA BOARD – CV BUILDER – ATS INTEGRATOR”
954705
Creation of pre-verified job portal marketplace, where the network houses only professionals who have source verified credentials and where all network users have ongoing, ready access to refresh and/or top-grade their credentials that cannot be falsified. The network portal leverages a permission ledger blockchain that provides a second layer of security to the encrypted private data of the users where only profile owners can grant, deny or revoke viewing permissions. The marketplace (ALPHA-BOARD) will connect pre-verified job seekers with enterprise employers improving filtration and significantly reducing time-to-hire.

INT (ZIM) - HYPOD
954762
Program: Canada – Germany collaborative industrial research and development program 2019, Call 2
Project acronym: HYPOD
The project goal is to develop an airborne system to detect and locate small pipeline leaks that have recently percolated to the surface and produced a detectable saturated spot for different soil types and various environmental conditions. Hyperspectral imaging data analysis will be used to detect crudes and refined products leaks. To improve the reliability of hyperspectral imaging and reduce the false alarm rate, the hyperspectral detection algorithm will be further enhanced by making use of various Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm. The hyperspectral leak detection data will be compared with data gathered from an extremely sensitive UV active LiDAR LDS and data reconciled to develop accelerated training scenarios for the AI.
