New Media Research Networks Fund

Objective

The objective of the New Media Research Networks Fund is to help build research and development (R&D) capacity in Canada and to advance innovation in the area of digital cultural content.

Under this Fund, a group of public and private sector partners organize themselves into a Network enabling researchers to share knowledge, resources and facilities. This Network will develop a research program - made up of component projects - centered on a particular theme, which has relevance for the cultural sector and promotes innovation in new media or interactive digital content. Research will result in technological innovations for use in the cultural sector. Specifically, funding will be provided for organizations developing innovations such as tools, processes and software that can be used in turn in creating, managing or delivering digital cultural content.

• Small- to medium-size enterprise (SME) active in the cultural new media sector
