INDIA PROGRAM

India and Canada have signed a bilateral science and technology (S&T) agreement to encourage, develop and facilitate cooperative activities between the two countries in science and technology (S&T) for peaceful purposes in fields of common interest and on the basis of equality and mutual benefit.

Within the context of the S&T agreement, funding mechanisms have been identified, through which industry, universities/colleges and research organizations may seek support for joint bilateral research and development (R&D) projects and other activities intended to generate new or expanded international research and technology-based partnerships (termed as Partnership Development Activities).  

For Canada, funding and other services will be provided through International Science and Technology Partnerships Canada Inc. (ISTPCanada), a non-governmental organization selected by the Government of Canada for this purpose. For India the Global Innovation & Technology Alliance (GITA), a non-governmental organization, engaged by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India, and the Deparment of Biotechnology (DBT) will provide funding and Partnership Development Activities program.
