Canada’s support for research & development : suggestions to improve the return on investment (ROI).: CC143-10/2016E-PDF
“Entrepreneurs make an irreplaceable contribution to building an innovative nation. They generate economic activity, and their decisions about how to innovate largely determine Canada’s global competitiveness. Fundamentally, they bring to market the new products and services that people value and that bring economic, health and social benefits. To improve the return on its R&D investments and programs, Canada must increase the commercialization of its inventions. Entrepreneurs are the root of commercialization, and should be supported in their efforts. This will require shifts in: funding (applied research should be encouraged and supported more); focus (from product / technology “push” to market “pull”) and; support (to entrepreneurs who are striving to commercialize the fruits of R&D)”--p. 1.
