The Faculty of Science has developed Use, Services, Infrastructure, and Resources (USIR) agreement to support the incubation and growth of innovative companies within our community. This framework provides entrepreneurs and startups with facilitated access to our world-class research facilities, technical services and specialized expertise. By creating a structured pathway for collaboration, these agreements help startups turn ideas into high-impact solutions while ensuring responsible use of University resources.
Through this initiative, we’re strengthening our role as a hub for innovation, entrepreneurship and industry collaboration. Companies working with our faculty gain opportunities to connect with leading researchers, enjoy state-of-the-art infrastructure and engage with established partners. In doing so, we’re fostering the transfer of knowledge and technology, driving economic development and creating new opportunities for students, researchers and the broader community.
