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.

Rapid-prototyping and high-volume manufacturing of metasurfaces and metalenses
1029047
Metasurfaces, with their compact size and broadband performance, are poised to revolutionize optics industries, however, the lack of accessible fabrication services hinders their widespread adoption. We plan to bridge this gap by adding a dedicated metasurfaces option to our NanoSOI™ foundry, which is utilized by leading companies in quantum computing (QC), artificial intelligence (AI), LIDAR, and sensing.
Adding dedicated metasurface and metalens fabrication capacity to our existing foundry will position our company for the future growth that is expected to occur in the field of advanced materials and optics for applications in electronics devices, high-speed computing, AI, and advanced imaging.

Early Economic Evaluation of Innovative Canadian Life Sciences SME Technology
1029070
The Health Technology Assessment Support for SMEs aims to provide health technology assessment and guidance to SMEs. This project will help SMEs understand in quantified terms, the potential value of their new products/technologies to healthcare payers and insurers, commercial viability, market access opportunity, risks, and potential return on investment. It will undertake a quantitative assessment of the clinical and economic outcomes that might be achieved with the new product, and a determination of whether a healthcare payer will reimburse the product at a price sufficient to generate a return on investment. This will assist in strategic decision making that will impact the strategies used in the product life cycle management.

RetinalAI
1029116
This project focuses on creating an advanced automated retinal image analysis platform for Canada’s healthcare system. Using cutting-edge deep learning techniques and multimodal large language models, the platform will analyze 3D OCT scans to detect retinal diseases and conditions. By incorporating a robust human-in-the-loop validation process, the system ensures highly accurate and reliable insights for clinicians. This innovation aims to reduce diagnostic delays, improve patient outcomes, and enhance the efficiency of retinal disease management in clinical practice.
