Successful Innovation
A project with a Canadian research group:
The grant we received from CIIRD was a mutual grant for Innovopro and a Canadian research and pilot private organization.
The project allowed Innovopro to scale up our process from lab to pilot scale, to identify the required equipment, and to validate the process and product.
Due to the mutual project we have made a major progress on regulatory aspects and in our market penetration.
The data that were collected during the project were essential for us in order to move to industrial scale in 2019.
