CRIAQ START-UP - Deadline January 22nd 2021

CRIAQ START-UP - Deadline January 22nd 2021

Program details


The CRIAQ Start-up Grant is targeted for Quebec start-ups active in the aerospace sector.

Through a competitive process, CRIAQ will award two $10,000 grants per year in support of the technological development of two start-ups, under the rationale that this funding will help to bring the development of the product or service into alignment with potential users and customers.

Project submission and approval process


To be eligible for this grant, the company must be a start-up in and at least a portion of its activities must be geared toward the aerospace industry (products, services, solutions) and must be a good standing member of CRIAQ or must commit to become one before the grant is awarded.

Elements to be considered will include the following:

  • Date of incorporation within the last two years
  • Number of employees (fewer than ten)
  • Participation in a recognized incubator or accelerator
  • Etc.

Proposals will be evaluated according to the following four (4) criteria:

  • Novelty of the product or service
  • Technical feasibility
  • Aerospace business opportunity potential
  • Quality of the team

It is also important to note that applications from companies stemming from a CRIAQ research project will be evaluated positively.

Application and additional information

The form below must be completed and submitted no later than January 22, 2021. The evaluation will be completed by February 5, 2021.

Recipients must be available between February 16-19, 2021 for the announcement to be made at the CRIAQ RDV Forum.

    OVA : AFWerx Fusion

    Recently selected among the finalists for the challenge of "Leveraging Operational Effectiveness Through Technology", OVA presented their new augmented reality solution which allows operators to have more information at their fingertips, but also to improve the detection and anchoring capacity of the Microsoft Hololens 2. For more info please watch the video : https://youtu.be/wyHGMRn1kR8 Or visit their virtual booth : https://fusion.afwerxshowcase.com/exhibitor/ova-inc-8724 Building on recent work scientifically demonstrating the effectiveness of such an approach, we have adopted interdisciplinary human factors and cognitive engineering methods to design and test our innovative solution based on augmented reality (AR). Changes in cognitive load have predictable effects upon physiological measures and provide an objective and non‐obtrusive index of the load imposed upon distinct brain systems with specific functions, while state-of-the-eye metrics (e.g., pupil dilation, and blink rate and duration) can indicate workload and fatigue level. Enhancing the Hololens' tracking and identification capability with artificial intelligence has fixed major flaws in the hardware's adoption by main OEMs.
