#1 for Industry Partnership
At R+T Park we bring industry together with research, talent, and startups to go beyond ideas, solve real-world problems, and make real change.
R&D That Matters
The University of Waterloo is renowned for taking ideas and research out of the lab into the real world. The University ranks #1 in the world for student-employer partnerships and #1 in Canada for industry partnerships.
What does that mean? It means that we’re serious about working with you to go beyond ideas and turn research into fully realized, valuable IP, and market-ready solutions.
Corporate Innovation
Things are changing fast and companies need to innovate or risk dying. At R+T Park we know that’s easy to say, but hard to act on, which is why we work closely with the University of Waterloo and our incubator partners to help companies develop actionable strategies that can help them act nimble, experiment quickly, and beat the competition.
The Accelerator Centre, one of the top accelerators in the world, offers a comprehensive corporate innovation program designed to help companies spin out innovation teams, think differently about customer problems, and validate solutions faster.
