This project will explore the increase in coyote sightings and incidents in Liberty Village, Toronto. By analyzing data from community reports and speaking with residents and wildlife experts, the team will identify patterns and reasons behind human-coyote conflicts. The goal is to help the City of Toronto understand why these interactions are happening and to […]

Developing QuantumSecure Wireless Hub: quantum-safe wireless security integrating Quantum Key Distribution with wireless infrastructure to protect against current cyber threats and future quantum computing attacks. Addressing the $36B quantum cybersecurity market opportunity

CanAML Intelligence is an AI-powered compliance platform being developed to modernize Anti-Money Laundering (AML) operations for Canadian financial institutions. The project focuses on building explainable, automated risk detection and FINTRAC-compliant reporting workflows.

This project will develop and test an adaptive radar system that can monitor a person’s vital signs and detect falls without the need for wearable devices or cameras. The system uses advanced radar hardware and intelligent software to track heart rate, breathing, and movement safely and privately, even in real home or care environments. The […]

MPWash develops a reusable, cartridge-free filter that captures microplastics released during laundry. The project advances prototype validation, regulatory readiness, and commercialization to reduce pollution and strengthen Canada’s cleantech leadership.

This project focuses on developing a market and regulatory strategy for GlucoSmart Nanogel, an innovative Canadian-made wound-healing therapy designed for people with diabetes. The nanogel combines infection control, immune modulation, and tissue repair in a single, affordable treatment to improve healing outcomes for diabetic foot ulcers. Over four months, the project will evaluate regulatory requirements, […]

Electroencephalogram (EEG) setup and application are time consuming (current solutions involve ~50.3 minutes of setup/patient or participant) and requires expert application (making it inaccessible to many). The extensive time to setup EEGs limits the number of research participants and patients that a researcher or clinician can see in one day. This problem directly impacts research […]

Airborne viruses spread most readily in closed rooms where people share the same air. The usual defence is to crank up the ventilation system, so more outdoor air dilutes the germs. Unfortunately, higher airflow drives up energy bills and works against carbon-reduction targets. Installing Far-UVC lamps (222 nm) is another promising option because this light […]

This project focuses on developing a novel triboelectric sensor to improve the efficiency and reliability of industrial processes specifically in gas-phase polyethylene production. In these reactors, plastic particles often accumulate electrostatic charge during operation, leading to dangerous buildups that can cause the formation of solid “sheets,” resulting in costly unplanned shutdowns. The goal of this […]

This project will develop a working prototype of an intelligent compliance assistant that leverages machine learning to detect regulatory risks in business contracts, map clauses to frameworks such as GDPR and PIPEDA, and generate plain-language summaries. The system will also track evolving regulations and intelligently suggest policy updates. By simplifying legal review, it enables Canadian […]

Rootsy Marketplace is building a scalable, tech-enabled local e-commerce platform to connect Canadian small businesses with local buyers. The project focuses on optimizing platform logistics, digital operations, and market reach using third-party delivery partners.

Our project is focused on developing portable biosensors that let anyone measure steroid hormones—like androgens, estrogens, and glucocorticoids—without needing to send samples to a lab. These tools were first designed to help monitor wildlife health, especially for caribou populations important to Indigenous communities, but they also have huge potential for human health. As scientists, we’re […]
