The Accelerate Alliance brings together industries, governments, researchers, advocates and others relevant to manufacturing ZEV and ZEV parts across Canada. The aim of the Alliance is to encourage these key players—from mining to mobility, from R&D to commercialization, and from vehicle assembly to charging infrastructure—to collaborate, strategize, and advocate for policies that accelerate the development of the ZEV supply chain in Canada. -- LAlliance Accélérer rassemble des industries, des gouvernements, des chercheurs, des promoteurs et dautres acteurs concernés par la fabrication de véhicules et de pièces VZE au Canada. Lobjectif de lAlliance est dencourager ces acteurs clés - de lexploitation minière à la mobilité, de la R&D à la commercialisation, et de lassemblage des véhicules à linfrastructure de recharge - à collaborer, à élaborer des stratégies et à défendre des politiques qui accélèrent le développement de la chaîne dapprovisionnement des VZE au Canada.

Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) is a nonprofit organization that delivers an objectives-based program for massively scalable, seed-stage, science- and technology-based companies. The nine-month program employs an objectives-based mentoring process to enhance the performance of technical founders who learn from the insights of experienced entrepreneurs, with the goal of maximizing equity-value creation. Founded by Professor Ajay Agrawal in 2012 at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management, the program has expanded and now has 11 sites across six countries: Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal, Halifax, Paris, Madison, Seattle, Estonia, Berlin, and Melbourne. The program combines 5 elements to help companies transition from science projects to scalable and financeable companies: - An emphasis on objective-setting, helping companies focus on what’s most important to their business - Focused mentorship from experienced entrepreneurs who have founded, led, and sold significant tech companies - Technical advice from world-leading scientists, engineers, and economists - Hands-on support from top business students, who embed within the company to provide business support - Opportunities to raise capital, including angels and VCs from Europe and North America The successful commercialization of cutting-edge science and technology achieved through the program has led to the creation of over CAD $35 billion in equity value.
