The goal of the CRIBIQ research program is to co-finance innovative collaborative research projects involving enterprises and public research institutes that share a common interest in the development of bio-based products. Funding of such projects by CRIBIQ is provided in the form of non-reimbursable financial contributions granted by Quebec’s Ministry of Economy and Innovation (MEI).
The strength of Quebec's artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem is no coincidence. Indeed, thanks to its leadership and breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence, the province is favourably positioned at the heart of this great industrial revolution.
By working closely with the industry, Quebec's public research institutes (QPRIs) are actively participating in the development of innovation in artificial intelligence. Thus, in addition to offering organizations and researchers know-how and access to costly and not easily accessible cutting-edge infrastructures, QPRIs mobilize their expertise to ensure that all sectors of the bioeconomy benefit from the sharing of this knowledge.
It is thus within the framework of the Call for Innovation Projects in Artificial Intelligence launched by the Ministry of Economy, Innovation and Energy (MEIE) that CRIBIQ will support, through its PARTENAR-IA | Collaborative Industrial Research program, the public research institutes of Quebec working in collaboration with the companies during the various stages of assembly and realization of their innovative AI projects.

In order to position itself as a key player in the preservation of the environment, the province of Quebec must invest in academic research on the various sectors of the biobased economy. Two of those important sectors are the industrial bioproducts sector and the environment sector.
The industrial bioproducts sector includes bioenergy (liquid, solid, and gaseous biofuels), materials, and biobased chemicals. As for the environment sector, the CRIBIQ aims to set up projects related to bioremediation, effluent treatment, and waste recovery.

Innovation is an essential lever for the growth and development of Quebec, in economic, social and environmental terms. To be an integral part of advanced societies and open up to the world, Quebec must create and maintain a climate that is favourable to innovation in both the research and entrepreneurial sectors.
It is in this context that the CRIBIQ, in collaboration with the Ministry of Economy, Innovation and Energy (MEIE), is relaunching its CRIBIQ-StartUP funding program, with the aim of supporting young innovative businesses with high growth potential operating in the industrial sectors of the bioeconomy: Bio-food, Industrial bioproducts and Environment.
The CRIBIQ hopes to support Quebec startups in the industrial sectors of the bioeconomy in their innovation efforts at a crucial time in their development, and to prepare them to bring their innovations to market.
