The NCE Program - What does it mean to mobilize?

Good things happen when talented people come together.

But how, exactly, does that occur? How does Canada become a better country through the best use of its brilliant research talent? How do we make sure that the great ideas born in our universities and research institutions grow into great innovations that enhance our lives?

To mobilize means to assemble a variety of talents to accomplish a goal. It involves marshalling sometimes far-flung forces to achieve an objective. It requires co-ordinating the activities of different groups of diverse people to bring about a desired change.

That is precisely what the Networks of Centres of Excellence program does. We mobilize excellence. The individual networks bring together talented researchers from a variety of fields and disciplines. They operate across the country, encouraging gifted people to pool their resources to solve problems. And they link those researchers with the industry partners who can turn promising breakthroughs into profitable solutions.

That is how good things happen for research, for industry and for Canada.
