Canada's National Research Council (NRC) Now Onboard

We met with the National Research Council last week, which resulted in their commitment to help Plantiga during the course of our development. As a Canadian technology start-up, it is so important to have the government's support, be it in development, marketing, financing, etc. 

We are not sure the specifics, but right now it looks like we will be able to apply for IRAP funding assistance in the near future, as well as develop the technology under a particular R&D North American agreement. 

The NRC is also going to help us out with marketing strategies and market research, as well as our financing efforts. All in all, it's nice to have the governments assistance.

Editor in me can't resist. The "course" of your development. "Coarse" of development would imply rough patches, and start-ups already have enough of those.
