Boosting B.C.’s marine sector by supporting tech companies

New testbed for marine technology, innovation
Through the Integrated Marketplace program, delivered by Innovate BC, the Province is launching a marine and coastal testbed to find new ways to solve industry challenges with made-in-B.C. technology.

These challenges include decarbonization, improved efficiency and competitiveness, and better health and safety. Solutions to these challenges will be designed to support innovation that improves environmental monitoring, vessel optimization, coastal resilience and Canadian sovereignty, while helping companies bring new technology to market faster.
