Tech-Access Canada

Canada's 60 Technology Access Centres (TACs) are specialized applied research & development centres affiliated with publicly-funded colleges and cégeps.

Each TAC serves a specific geographic area, with a focus on strengthening the industrial sector of significance to that region.

These demand-driven centres, from BC to PEI, help Canadian businesses - especially Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) - get their products, processes and services market-ready by:

• offering objective advice and specialized technical services;
• providing training related to new types of equipment and processes; and
• conducting applied research and development projects focused on company problems.
