This first national Canadian commercialization postdoc program was designed and developed in partnership with Mitacs to meet the needs of the Canadian science innovation ecosystem, and informed by a commissioned\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mitacs.ca\/our-innovation-insights\/from-invention-to-innovation\/\">white paper<\/a>.<br><br>Starting in September 2025, the program will support postdocs working in deep tech sectors such as biotechnology, clean energy, sustainability, quantum computing \/ artificial intelligence, and advanced materials. Participants will gain skills in opportunity identification, market prioritization, intellectual property strategy, business model development, commercialization strategy and entrepreneurial finance\u2014preparing them to become venture founders, industry champions or translational scientists.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 12-month program is delivered in a cohort model, connecting fellows with mentors, incubators, accelerators and regional ecosystem partners across Canada. Supported through NSERC, Mitacs, and collaborating organizations, the commercialization postdocs are enabled to dedicate their full time to derisking their research-based innovation idea and to developing and advancing their commercialization strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meet the 2025 i2I Commercialization Postdocs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p
