R&D Without an R&D Department: Fractional R&D in Canada

Small companies often have ideas worth commercializing but lack an in-house R&D team, specialized equipment, or a clear path from prototype to market. Canada’s Technology Access Centres fill that gap: a national network of publicly supported applied R&D and commercialization centres that offer affordable, on-demand access to researchers, equipment, testing, and objective advice, while firms retain the IP. Discover how this “fractional R&D” model de-risks technology adoption, accelerates commercialization and gives other regions a practical blueprint for turning more ideas into market-ready products.
