R+T Park Living Lab: Micro Mobility

The David Johnston Research + Technology Park (R+T Park) has been at the forefront of integrating new technologies into real-world settings through our Living Labs Initiative. This innovative project tested e-scooters within the community, using the park as a testbed for micro-mobility. In collaboration with the City of Waterloo, R+T Park launched Canada’s first e-scooter pilot program in 2018, a pioneering step in urban transportation.

R+T Park: A Living Lab

The David Johnston Research + Technology Park (R+T Park) at the University of Waterloo serves as a dynamic hub for innovation, home to a vibrant community of over 4,500 individuals, all driving progress in fields as diverse as technology, digital solutions, and life sciences. Through its Living Labs, the park provides real-world environments for testing and refining emerging technologies, helping to turn groundbreaking research into tangible products and solutions.

R+T Park Living Lab: The Buoyant Foundation

At the University of Waterloo’s R+T Park, the Buoyant Foundation, led by Professor Elizabeth English, is testing floating homes to address climate change-induced flooding. Using the park’s stormwater pond, researchers are exploring the stability, durability, and wind resistance of these innovative flood-resistant structures. The R+T Park’s Living Labs Initiative invites innovators to collaborate and test ideas in real-world conditions.
