I see the urgency of creating an ecosystem based on collaboration, particularly with academia, but also with SMEs. The government can play a leadership role in this by investing major amounts so that Canada does not lose its competitive advantage.
We can talk about the urgency of establishing a collaboration with the academic community. That has an influence on numerous fields, including artificial intelligence, leading-edge robotics, communication networks, blockchain, and industry 4.0. Unfortunately, we often hear that these companies are sometimes working in a vacuum. That is also the case for the government.
What would you propose to make the collaborations and dialogues more productive?
