About Us:
Ontario Centre of Innovation (OCI) drives the development of Ontario's economy by helping create new jobs, products, services, technologies, and businesses. In partnership with industry, OCI co-invests to commercialize innovation originating in the province's publicly funded colleges, universities, and research hospitals. We also support and invest in early-stage projects, where the probability of commercial success and potential total return on innovation are substantial. Another expanding focus for OCI is the development of the next generation of innovators through our entrepreneurship fellowships and programs for students and youth across Ontario. OCI's efforts are focused on sectors of the economy with the greatest potential to drive Ontario's future prosperity and global competitiveness: energy and environment (including water); advanced manufacturing; advanced health technologies; and information, communications technologies, and digital media. A trusted partner of government in program delivery, we are committed to advancing a whole-of-government approach as a means of streamlining funding application processes for companies and entrepreneurs.
OVIN (Ontario Vehicle Innovation Network), led by OCI, is the Government of Ontario's flagship initiative to support the future of the automotive and mobility sector.
