The simple answer is all levels. If I may be a little bit simplistic, I'll tell you that a strong difference between NRCan and us is that we are sort of the operational arm. We don't do policy and regulation. We don't enforce. We do actual work, and we work, as I mentioned in my opening statement, with thousands of companies a year, from the entrepreneur who knocks on our door with an idea he wants to test, to the multinationals and global giants of this world.
To be more specific, we often work with small companies such as entrepreneurs where we actually go in the lab and do pilot testing or scaling up with them, testing to see if the invention obeys the laws of physics, the first few tests, and/or we can also use IRAP, the industrial research assistance program, which is for companies with 500 employees or less. IRAP funds the development of small or initial projects, which are actually fairly large sometimes. Our IRAP network will support finding the right resources and it will open doors.
So absolutely we do.
