We offer several funding programs for scientific research in artificial intelligence. The majority of these programs exist thanks to our Canada First Research Excellence Fund grant award. We also join forces with other organizations to offer an even broader array of funding options.
IVADO’s support must be acknowledged in all public communications related to work resulting from IVADO funding, for instance in publications, presentations and during scientific events. Please follow our Public communications guidelines.

Congratulations to all our awardees!
