Thank you.
Ms. De Marcellis‑Warin, many witnesses have talked about the applied research being done in colleges and college centres for technology transfer, in part because of how important these establishments are for the regions they're in. The role of university research is not mentioned as much.
As an interuniversity research, liaison and transfer centre, CIRANO acts as a link between basic research and the real-world economy.
Could you tell us how your approach differs from the applied research approach?
How do you transform university research results into a real-world tool for businesses and public policy?
