The University of Calgary has been selected to become the home of XPRIZE’s Canada Hub. XPRIZE hubs foster connections between innovators from across the world to drive change. UCalgary has received $1.5M from Alberta Technology and Innovation and $1.5M from the Opportunity Calgary Investment Fund to support the hub’s operation. The hub will offer Canadian innovators a space where they can de-risk and validate new technologies. “We’re excited to see the amazing world-changing ideas and innovations that will come from the hub at UCalgary,” said UCalgary President Dr Ed McCauley.
