Artificial intelligence funding program PARTENAR-IA | ENTREPRISE

INTEGRATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INTO BIOECONOMIC SECTORS

In the great industrial revolution of artificial intelligence (AI), Quebec is in a favorable position, and the strength of its ecosystem is no accident.

In Quebec, several innovation centers in close collaboration with industry, research institutes and universities specialize in AI and can mobilize their expertise to benefit all sectors of the economy. These organizations provide researchers and businesses with know-how and access to cutting-edge infrastructure that is expensive and inaccessible.

As part of the Call for Artificial Intelligence Innovation Projects launched by CRIBIQ via the PARTENAR-IA program | ENTREPRISE will support companies in collaboration with research centers in the realization of their projects in artificial intelligence (AI), by pursuing the following objectives:

• improve the competitiveness of businesses through the adoption of AI;
• encourage collaborations between companies (of all sizes, including startups), as well as with the research and innovation communities to accelerate the integration of artificial intelligence technologies in business environments and, by the very fact, in society;
• support structuring projects aimed at the mass adoption of AI in one or more sectors of the economy;
• support the realization of projects leading to significant and immediate economic benefits;
• ensure the development and consolidation of innovation efforts in the field of AI;
• contribute to the positioning of Quebec as a leader in the development of AI.
