Very quickly let me tell you about IMRIS, a company working in the field of magnetic resonance imaging that was created by the NRC in Winnipeg. When the company was first founded several years ago, it had only a handful of employees and its sales were almost non-existent. Today, sales of magnetic resonance imaging systems, all of which are manufactured in Winnipeg, total $60 million.These systems are manufactured and integrated in Winnipeg.
