CFI Consultation Session

Posted by Suman Jha on October 26, 2015 in Events

In September the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) informed the community that it was embarking on a nationwide consultation with research institutions and key CFI stakeholders to assess potential adjustments and improvements to funds and other key strategic issues. To this end, a consultation paper was issued, which can be downloaded here in pdf format.

Please note that the CFI will be holding a consultation session to which all Halifax and area institutions are invited to send attendees. The session will be held on Tuesday, October 27th from 9am-11am at the Delta Barrington Hotel (1875 Barrington St.), Sackville Room. Dr. Gilles Patry, President and CEO of the CFI will be attending this session.

The CFI consultation meeting will be of interest to university administrators (vice-presidents, research, deans, department heads and research office staff) as well as researchers and project leaders considering submitting projects to the CFI.

To ensure that there is enough space for attendees, RSVP at rsvp@innovation.ca.
