For nearly a century, the National Research Council (NRC) has excelled on the national and international stages by continually refocusing its activities to better tackle new national challenges and priorities.
Today, more than ever before, NRC has an opportunity to stimulate the growth of world-class science- and technology-based industries, nurture groundbreaking technology clusters nationwide, and contribute to large-scale, multi-disciplinary research and development initiatives in priority areas across the country. Our Strategy capitalizes on those opportunities.
NRC's purpose has never been more focused; the need for evolution never more pressing. Driven by 90 years of proud service to Canada, NRC's strategy reaches forward to embrace a promising future.
