SMEs looking to succeed in developing their innovation roadmap need strong leadership across the C-suite level. Whether overseeing a specific division — finance, technology, human resources, or sales — or the organization as a whole, effective leaders are strategic thinkers responsible for handling myriad business challenges as they arise.
From competing for specialized talent to meeting the demands of globalization, senior executives need strong leadership skills and a solid understanding of business fundamentals. But many Canadian SMEs — especially those in the start-up phase — lack the time, resources, and personnel to meet the challenges faced by game-changing innovators.
With more than 20 years of experience guiding executives in the innovation ecosystem, Mitacs helps SMEs quickly and easily find the talent and expertise they need. We match businesses with top-level talent — from college students to undergrads to graduates and postdoctoral fellows — from the best post-secondary institutions across Canada and from around the world. With the aid of Mitacs interns, executive-level teams are better equipped to drive the research and development that will allow them to achieve their business goals.
