Grants and Contributions in support of the Forest Innovation Program
Program Purpose:
The objective of the Forest Innovation Program (FIP) is to enable transformation in the Canadian forest industry. More specifically, the FIP will help drive forest sector transformation, sparking enterprises in their move beyond a dependence on commodity products toward value-added, high-value and specialty products – sustainably extracting the maximum value from the fibre resource. To achieve this, the FIP will facilitate and promote a value-chain approach that addresses innovation from the seed to the end markets and products in which the right fibre is matched to the right product.
