Thank you very much for your kind words.
As I was saying earlier, I believe we can do better.
You also mentioned something very important that is related to intellectual property, namely trademarks. And in addition to trademarks, there are also patents. That's something that needs to be followed up.
Given the level of innovation and funding from the federal and provincial governments, we are capable of transforming these early investments into marketable intellectual property on a larger scale. We are clearly able to do this.
Once again, I believe that organizations like ours, if they work together with technology transfer companies and other organizations across Canada, will be able to increase the value of intellectual property.
We can even create new intellectual property through public funds in order to establish partnerships with the industry. That would definitely improve our status among OECD and G-7 countries.
