Canada-Israel 2022 Collaborative Research and Development Call for Proposals

The governments of Canada and Israel are collaborating to establish and support joint industrial research and development (R&D) initiatives with high commercialization potential. This request for proposals is open to organizations from Canada and Israel that want to join project consortia to work together on developing new goods, processes, or technology-based services.

The program intends to generate significant economic benefits for both Canada and Israel by encouraging R&D that leads to new products, processes, or services with high commercialization potential. To be eligible for funding, projects must demonstrate a clear path to commercialization in global markets.

Projects will be selected based on their technical and economic merits and their potential to create significant economic benefits for Canada and Israel.
