I'd suggest that a specific area of focus for us is probably small and mid-sized enterprises, as opposed to IT or biotechnology. The reason for that, frankly, is that it's the sector that's received very little attention in this area.
We had a pilot project in the Ontario colleges where we had 10 colleges that started an applied research network focused on small and mid-sized enterprises, and boy, did it ever get a big bang for its buck. I mean, the amount of success stories out of that small three-year pilot project from folks who started new companies and advanced new ideas.... Some of them started with one person working in a basement and now have a few hundred employees.
I think it tells you that if you could focus some resources around applied research, particularly for small and mid-sized companies as an area of focus, you would see a tremendous uptake and a lot of economic activity. If we're looking at focus, that would be my proposal.
