Air Fixx produces private-label specialty cleaning supplies and uses proprietary made-in-Canada equipment to apply a biobased liquid catalyst for odour control applications. They currently serve over 400 multi residential buildings (MRB) in the GTA, with three-year growth projected to be 20-25% annually. The odour treating catalyst is highly effective, but susceptible to mold. Mold clogs […]

This proposed project aims to apply the emerging and open source large language models (LLMs) systems, particularly Retrieval-Augmented-Generation (RAG) pipelines, to generate the deployment scheme of the cryptographic product for different application environments of end customers. The semi-automation of generating the deployment scheme helps improve the scalability of business by the increase of productivity while […]

The transport sector remains a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions1. This impact is even greater in the case of perishable goods, where the vehicle’s propulsion engine or an auxillary unit must also power the refrigeration systems. As a result, engines run continuously, also while stationary, leading to increased fuel consumption and emissions2. Fully […]

Cities face significant challenges in maintaining infrastructure due to inefficient reporting processes, duplicate submissions, and reactive maintenance approaches that address problems only after they become serious. In 2023, the City of Edmonton developed the REPAIR AI platform to address pothole management, demonstrating the potential of AI-driven solutions for infrastructure maintenance. The Community Driven project will […]

Linamar’s transition from specialized industrial hardware (LMMS) to a standard-computing, software-driven manufacturing environment (LMES) increases flexibility and capability — and expands the attack surface. This project establishes a continuous Security Checkup Program for LMES that finds, fixes, and prevents exploitable vulnerabilities before they cause production downtime or data loss. Using automated scanning, scheduled penetration testing, […]

This project is based on a collaboration between the University of Ottawa and Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, aims to revolutionize how we control light for the next generation of quantum computers. Currently, managing light particles requires bulky and complex networks of mirrors and lenses that often leak information and are difficult to scale […]

Changing farming subsidies provides an opportunity for habitat restoration in Cumbria. So that resources are allocated effectively within these landscapes, restorative actions must be assessed for nature recovery and ecosystem service delivery. Given the history of herbivore overgrazing in Cumbria, evaluation of the impact of grazing exclusion on belowground biodiversity and carbon cycling is needed. […]

Good & Well is a boutique impact investment firm based in Toronto, Canada that invests in and supports inspiring entrepreneurs driving social change. We are seeking the help of a student with relevant data science and/or computer science experience to support us in identifying areas of operations within our organization that could be streamlined, through […]

Argo Transit Corporation provides municipalities with a turnkey, near door-to-door on-demand transit service that integrates software, onboard hardware, vehicles, and operational procedures. As Argo expands into more communities, the organization must ensure that service delivery remains reliable, consistent, and efficient across diverse operating environments.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a common and potentially life-threatening condition affecting 1 in 10 people during their lifetime. Many cases occur during or shortly after hospitalization. Although hospitals aim to prevent these events, accurately identifying VTE using routine hospital data remains challenging, as diagnostic codes alone are […]
