Ontario expects more tie-ups with China
Print Edition
THE Canadian province of Ontario expects more research and innovation partnerships with China as part of efforts to strengthen its economy.
During a just-concluded weeklong trip to China, Reza Moridi, Ontario’s minister of research and innovation, focused on collaboration opportunities in life sciences, information technology and clean technology.
“Global partnerships between talented researchers and innovative companies lead to advances beyond what any of us could accomplish working alone,” Moridi said.
“By further strengthening our research and innovation ties with China, we can enhance the role of technology in providing better healthcare and improving our environment, while supporting high-value jobs at home for today and for the future.”
A memorandum of understanding between Ontario and China’s Ministry of Science and Technology covered 12 collaboration projects between the province and Chinese research institutions and industry.
Also unveiled was a commitment of an extra C$10 million (US$8.89 million) in joint Ontario-China funding to support the next round of collaboration projects under the MOU.
Moridi also said the Canadian business community’s concern about intellectual property protection eased.
