This is an opportunity to have access to a private 5G testbed to develop and test your technology to solve a real problem for a hospital in Ontario. Up to $50,000 in grant funding is available through the OCI-ENCQOR 5G program and business advisory services from one of the three ENCQOR hubs (Ottawa, Waterloo and Toronto). Select applicants will have the opportunity to engage with subject matter experts from The Ottawa Hospital to inform the design of their solution. Application Deadline: February 3, 2021.
