The Canadian Printable Electronics Industry Association and The Alberta Council of Technologies have signed a memorandum of understanding to develop Alberta’s printable and flexible electronics industry and boost the regional diversification of Canada’s knowledge-based economy.
ABCtech is a “network of networks” that advocates on behalf of Alberta’s technology-based enterprises. It focuses on the commercialization of disruptive technologies that will place Alberta and Alberta companies at the forefront of emerging economies, to wean the province’s economic fortunes from their dependence on natural resources.
“ABCtech’s mandate is very much in accord with the CPEIA’s approach to building the industry ecosystem required to drive the commercialization and end-user adoption of emerging technologies,” said Peter Kallai, president and CEO of the CPEIA.
“Alberta wants to, needs to and is diversifying its economy,” said Perry Kinkaide, founder and past president of ABCtech. “This partnership will help those that can benefit from printable and flexible electronics in our province get the recognition and support they need to take advantage of these market opportunities.”
