Text on screen: [The heart of innovation in Canada]

Peter Stoicheff, president, University of Saskatchewan: When you talk about innovation in this country, and the research that leads to innovation, it’s going to be happening primarily at – at universities.

Text on screen: [Universities host 60 incubators, accelerators and start-up programs]

Peter Stoicheff: I think of universities as talent engines. They – they attract talent and they produce talent. They circulate talent. And there really is no other sector of society that does that, particularly with people at such a young age who are learning so many things.

From my experience, universities have reasonably close relationships, or at least dialogues, with government. Where the gap is mostly is with industry and with the private sector.

Peter Stoicheff: Some way of closing that gap through industry liaison offices at every institution, with innovation and research parks that are associated with institutions, with incubators that are associated with universities, you know, those are the things that we really need to be much more purposeful about.

Peter Stoicheff, recteur de la University of Saskatchewan, voit les universités comme les moteurs de la recherche et de l’innovation au Canada. En plus de former le talent, les universités contribuent à réduire l’écart entre les secteurs privé et public en matière de R-D par leurs relations avec l’industrie, leurs complexes de recherche, leurs incubateurs et leurs entreprises de démarrage.
