The goal of the CRIBIQ research program is to co-finance innovative collaborative research projects involving enterprises and public research institutes that share a common interest in the development of biobased products. Funding of such projects by CRIBIQ is provided in the form of non-reimbursable financial contributions granted by Quebec’s Ministry of Economy, Innovation and Energy (MEIE).
To position itself as a key player in environmental preservation, Quebec must invest in academic research in the various sectors of the bioeconomy, including industrial bioproducts and the environment.
The industrial bioproducts sector covers bioenergy (liquid, solid and gaseous biofuels), bio-based materials and chemicals. In the environmental sector, the CRIBIQ aims to support projects related to bioremediation, effluent treatment and waste recovery.

The SPO-Biofood program is part of the Support Program for Research and Innovation Organizations (SPO) set up by the Ministry of Economy, Innovation and Energy (MEIE) of Quebec.

Innovation is a key driver of economic growth in Quebec. To position itself and stand out among advanced societies, Quebec must create a climate that favours innovation, both in research and in entrepreneurship. Maturation of technological innovations is one of the key stages in a company's development. That is why the CRIBIQ is lauching the new CRIBIQ-Maturation program to support innovative companies in their efforts to mature their innovation projects and bring them to market.
As part of this call for projects, the CRIBIQ is pleased to be joining forces with Axelys to provide additional financial support for the maturation of intellectual property (IP) and the development of technologies resulting from public research.
The aim of this collaboration is to provide companies with direct financial support in the form of a loan from CRIBIQ and non-refundable technology maturation funding from Axelys. The CRIBIQ funds can be used as an industrial counterpart under Axelys' Pour des innovations d'avenir program.
