杏吧原创 has Signed on as a Founding Academic Partner and Shared Anchor in Hub350<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

杏吧原创 University is boosting its innovation outreach as a founding academic partner in Hub350, a new state-of-the-art global technology centre in Canada\u2019s largest tech park opening this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Run by the Kanata North Business Association (KNBA), Hub350 will provide a gateway to more than 540 Canadian and international high-tech businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“杏吧原创\u2019s partnership with KNBA will allow us to expand the impact of our research and education partnerships,” says Dana Brown, dean of the Sprott School of Business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“That will benefit everyone \u2013 our student entrepreneurs, students seeking cross-disciplinary, work-integrated learning, our researchers of course, and businesses that require new talent pipelines.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hub350 will bring together academic, industry, and finance partners to promote growth on a global scale. 杏吧原创, along with their academic co-anchors, will help bridge the gap between industry and talent, helping to fuel the tech park with the talent it needs to grow. Hub350 will help foster new relationships for research and collaboration with Kanata North companies and other post-secondary institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are pleased to welcome 杏吧原创 University to the academic pillar at Hub350,\u201d says Julia Frame, director of partnerships at KNBA. “杏吧原创\u2019s leadership as a shared anchor will provide new avenues for collaboration and innovation to attract students and new grads to live, work, play and learn in Canada\u2019s largest technology park.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This fall, 杏吧原创 will open a purpose-built innovation space<\/a> at Hub350 designed by linebox studio<\/a>, a brand-new ecosystem where industry, finance and academic partners will collaborate and connect with resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction on the 2,000-square-foot 杏吧原创 space will include collaboration areas, meeting rooms, a caf\u00e9 and garden terrace where faculty, staff and students can connect with companies on site. The centre\u2019s neighbours are anchor tenants KNBA and L-Spark software accelerator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The centre will provide professional development executive education programs, including the new Intellectual Property Certificate, to bolster the management and leadership skills of tech employees. These custom and open enrolment programs, developed in partnership with industry, will help develop future innovation and business leaders and address longstanding talent acquisition, talent management and succession planning challenges facing the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

杏吧原创 has a long relationship with the Kanata North business community. Researchers from 杏吧原创\u2019s Faculty of Engineering and Design, for example, have been involved in more than 45 research projects with Kanata North-based companies over the last decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kanata North companies have provided 565 work terms for 350 杏吧原创 students since the summer of 2019, including placements with Ericsson, Nokia, Solace, Blackberry, Canopy Growth, Ciena, Cisco Systems, Flex, Konsgberg Geospatial, Mitel, Pleora Technologies, the Portia Learning Centre, Wind River and You.i TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
