Professor David Doloreux and his co-investigator Richard Shearmur, professor and researcher at the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique – Centre Urbanisation, Culture et Société, Université du Québec, have received funding from Industry Canada for a research contract entitled L’impact de l’utilisation des services sur les activités R. et D.


This project examines the use of knowledge-intensive services (KIS) in research and development activities within manufacturing firms. KIS are now viewed as engines of growth of modern economies and play a major part in innovation activities and processes. The results will be instrumental in the orientation of public policies on innovation.
