Harper Government Announces Important Improvements to Build in Canada Innovation Program

(firmenpresse) - GATINEAU, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 07/31/15 -- Public Works and Government Services Canada
The Honourable Diane Finley, Minister of Public Works and Government Services, today announced to the Build in Canada Innovation Program (BCIP). The Department consulted with industry and has made changes that will make it easier for innovative Canadian companies to apply for and participate in the program.
For example, companies will now be able to submit their proposals any time during the year, as soon as their innovation is ready to be tested.
In addition, Canadian innovators who have already received a BCIP contract will now be able to sell their products or services to more than one federal organization for further testing, allowing them to see how their innovation performs in different settings.
These changes to the program take effect today, July 31, 2015.
The new Call for Proposals is currently available on .
The BCIP helps Canadian businesses get their cutting-edge goods and services from the lab to the marketplace. Successful sales translate into jobs, and jobs lead to prosperity for hard-working Canadians and their families. This program is just one of the many ways the Government of Canada supports small and medium businesses across Canada.
