This is a really important question that we're trying to think about a lot at SDTC right now, just from the perspective of where our company is moving and starting to become larger.
I'll first say that this is what we think so far. We will continually refine this, because this is an area that we should understand better.
When we look at the research in patenting, it points to five or six areas where we seem to have a concentration of interest and human capital, if I could put it that way. One is fuel cells and hydrogen. The Vancouver region is a very important hub for that. In agriculture, it shouldn't be a surprise that there are some interesting things happening in many areas, including in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and the Guelph region. In recycling and waste there's strong talent there as well, and in water and waste management it's probably no surprise that industrial water handling is something that many of our industries in the natural resource sector do a lot of. It shouldn't be much of a surprise that we're good at it and have already been exporting. That's an area where we already have mid-sized firms all across the country. It's probably one of our leading sectors because of some of the good public and private work that's been done there. There are also energy efficiency and air quality-related areas. I think those would be key.
That's what we see so far, if I had to pick the areas that I think we're strongest at, and we'll continue to try to home in on them.
