Today's announcement paves the way for POET to participate in both Canadian and Ontario tech and innovation grants. The Ontario government grants ranges in the 1-4 million range. This year the feds are providing U of Ottawa with $13.8 million in funding for various projects (http://www.rsf-fsr.gc.ca/apply-demande/notional/2018-eng.aspx#530) As a startup, Millview probably knows the grant application system very well. This is a great way for POET to forge head with R&D without squeezing it's bottom line. Good strategic planning.
