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.

Dataset and Demonstration for Novel 3D Geometric Analysis Applicable to Advanced Manufacturing
1034325
This project develops an end-to-end demonstration of Metafold's Geometric Intelligence™ technology for analyzing large datasets of 3D CAD geometry. We will create a proprietary dataset of 10,000+ labeled CAD models and build enhanced algorithms for similarity detection, complexity analysis, and manufacturing method classification. The project includes developing a front-end navigator interface and conducting case studies demonstrating applications in manufacturing analysis, cost estimation, and design optimization. This work showcases how advanced geometric analysis can transform 3D data into actionable business intelligence for manufacturers.

Metafold - Youth 2023
1009241
Metafold develops software that supports engineers to fully exploit the capabilities of additive manufacturing. The proposed project is to expand Metafold's ability to support a variety of 3D printing methodologies, and to support a larger set of geometric design operations. The candidate will be working on enlarging the set of export formats provided by Metafold's platform, to allow engineers greater choice for manufacturing the designs they create with our technology. They will also add to the library of available geometric operations that enhance Metafold's customers' ability to realize innovative technologies using 3D printing.
