Debate: Innovation Challenges: a tool for Quebec’s energy transition?

In the midst of the energy transition, industries and municipal organizations are looking to move away from fossil fuels and towards green energy. Is it possible to set up partnerships between these two sectors, with a view to sustainable development? Can the Innovation Challenges, led by Alliance Métal Québec for the Industrial Metal Fabrication (IMF) sector, enable them to accelerate this transition and break down the barriers? Innovation Challenges, initiated by Alliance Métal Québec, receives a grant from the MEIE as part of the Défis innovation Québec measure. Find out how local SMEs are rising to the challenge of developing products that currently don’t exist to meet the needs of municipal organizations. Join this essential discussion that will build bridges between these different realities.
