I am very pleased to share with you the 2011/2012 Annual Report for Ontario Centres of Excellence Inc. (OCE), “Return on Innovation”. We hope you find it helpful in understanding the work that we do in supporting Ontario’s innovation agenda.
The report reflects OCE’s strong commitment to generating the best commercial outcomes from academic research sponsored by industry and OCE. In 2011/2012, OCE attracted new levels of investment from our partners, launched exciting new programs, forged some major new partnerships and benefited from a spirit of collaboration amongst funding agencies.
You may view the report, with audited financial statements, at http://www.oce-ontario.org/annual-report-2011-12.
Our accomplishments are due to the outstanding efforts of our staff, Board of Directors, Sector Advisory Boards, the ongoing support of the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development and Innovation, our ONE colleagues, the federal government, including the NCE, and our strong collaborative partnerships with industry, academic institutions and the investment community.
Together, we are working to ensure that Ontario-based innovation is prominently showcased in the global marketplace.
