The Government of Québec announced this week that it would be providing $288M in funding to support research and innovation in the province. The Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ) will receive more than $250M, which will be used to support the FRQ’s ongoing activities, expand excellence scholarships for graduate students, and further the province’s Stratégie québécoise de recherche et d’investissement en innovation. QC non-profit organization Axelys also received funding, which will be distributed to research institutions to further goals related to technological maturation, intellectual property protection, and the creation of technology companies.
