Thank you, chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for coming.
I have a couple of different questions. We'll start with Dr. Meulien.
You talked in your opening remarks about a very fast-tracked collaborative model that you've developed, and the way I interpreted it—and correct me if I'm wrong here—is that it breaks down that barrier of the proprietary nature of the IP or whatever the innovation is. I'd like you to expand a bit more on that and perhaps even relate an example or two, if you have them, of how this has worked, because it intrigued me in terms of the fast-track nature of what you're trying to do and how that process could actually be a huge winning process for companies.
I'd be interested, too, in Ms. Nolet's commenting on whether the people you represent are involved in these types of models to break down those barriers that exist.
