2021/22 CONtact innovator mentorship application deadline fast approaching
Applications close September 15
With the interest and desire to fast-track innovation, the CONtact innovator mentorship program provides researchers and entrepreneurs the opportunity to showcase their innovative solutions to industry experts.
New this year is the exciting opportunity for three innovators to present their solutions in-person at CCA’s annual conference in San Diego, California, March 8-11, 2022, in a “Construction Den”-style session in addition to the mentorship meetings.
The Canadian Construction Association’s (CCA) CONtact innovator mentorship program matches innovators and entrepreneurs with experienced industry leaders to help refine their creative new products and services for the construction industry. In the last three years, more than 25 promising solutions and their innovators have been mentored through the program, and some of these solutions are being tried and tested in the industry.
The CONtact Innovator Mentorship program is presented with support from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP).
