Objectives

This program aims to strengthen and improve the resilience of supply chains in the health and social services network through the use of innovative Quebec companies. Its aim is to increase the proportion of Quebec-produced goods in healthcare and social services network supply chains. To achieve this, the program provides financial support to Quebec companies wishing to propose innovative technologies on the verge of commercialization to find solutions to the needs expressed by the health and social services network. In addition to the potential for accessing this market, the information gathered during the project will enable participating companies to refine their commercial and reimbursement strategies for export purposes.

    • Be legally constituted under the laws of the Government of Quebec or Canada and registered with the Quebec Enterprise Registrar.
    • Have their head office and the majority of their jobs and activities located or carried out in Quebec;
  2. Eligible technologies

Eligible technologies are innovations in medical technology or digital health that address the needs defined in each specific call for projects.

Eligible Projects
