Finding first-rate talent is key to your success — Mitacs connects you with the right research expert to solve complex R&D challenges.

The Power of Talent

Did you know access to talent is one of the biggest challenges faced by growing businesses and non-profits? This is particularly common for organizations that are experimenting with new research and development projects, commercializing novel technology, or building social innovation or community-building solutions.

After 25 years in the innovation ecosystem, we can confidently say the talent you need is out there – in universities and on college campuses across the country – and we have an extensive network throughout Canada’s post-secondary institutions to help you find your ideal match without stretching your budget.
