Strategic Industries
To support the province’s public and private efforts to create a new and sustainable economy for New Brunswick, our investment strategy focuses on five strategic industries that we consider most promising when it comes to developing the next generation of entrepreneurs and applied researchers. To be eligible for our venture capital and applied research funding, all project and business proposals generally fit within at least one of these industries, however, depending on the opportunity, exceptions are considered:
- Energy & Environmental Technologies
- Knowledge & ICT
- Life Sciences
- Value-added Natural Resources
- Advanced Manufacturing
- Education and training (Research Assistantship Initiative only)
