FINANCING
Secure funding for your collaborative AI projects by combining public programs and tax credits – without adding pressure on your teams. Confiance IA helps you structure your projects, prepare applications, and maximize funding opportunities available in Quebec and across Canada.
Collaborative AI innovation program (MEIE)
Call for proposals, funded by the Ministère de l’Économie, de l’Innovation et de l’Énergie (MEIE), for collaborative AI projects that involve at least one SME or start-up, along with other partners (major corporations, research centres, etc.).
R&D tax credits: CRIC (Québec) + SR&ED (Canada)
Combining Quebec’s new CRIC tax credit and the federal SR&ED program can significantly reduce the net cost of an AI-related R&D and pre-commercialization project.
