Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all of our witnesses for being here this afternoon, and for your presentations.
Mr. Ciobanu, I have a couple of questions to start for the IRAP program, and specifically DTAPP.
I'll begin by providing you with some feedback. As a member of Parliament, I get a lot of positive feedback about various government departments, but perhaps the one I get the most positive feedback about is IRAP. I wanted to share that with you, and if you could pass that along to your colleagues, I would greatly appreciate that.
We have an IRAP office at the Accelerator Centre at the University of Waterloo, the David Johnston Research and Technology Park. It is extremely beneficial to have that in our community.
Could you give us a bit of detail about the DTAPP program, when it was established, how much funding the program has, at what stage the program is? Could you set the high-level context for us, to start?
