We invite you to join us for the third webinar in a series of six dedicated to the future of agri-food research and innovation.
From Research to Adoption: Improving collaboration between scientists, industry and entrepreneurs to advance agri-food innovation
Canadian universities and scientists are renowned internationally for the quality of their research in agri-food. However, only a fraction of their research gets commercialized by Canadian companies every year.
What explains this situation? What could be done to stimulate the commercialization of scientific research and its subsequent adoption in the agri-food sector?
