This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Bilateral
Intergovernmental Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement
signed in 1971 by Canada and Germany, paving the way for a
successful partnership between both countries to advance
technological innovation and scientific excellence.
As a result of five decades of close and amicable partnership,
collaboration between Canada and Germany on science, technology,
and innovation (STI) today extends to various fields and includes
more and more organizations.
Under the auspices of the German Federal Ministry of Education and
Research (BMBF) and Global Affairs Canada (GAC), together with the
National Research Council of Canada (NRC), the German-Canadian STI
community celebrates in 2021 the successful and trustful
transatlantic collaboration through a series of events highlighting
the diversity of research and technology projects.

Looking Behind Transatlantic Cooperation |
|
The German Canadian Concourse is very pleased to take part in this
jubilee. For almost ten years, the GCC has been providing a unique
platform for transatlantic exchange on trending topics and has been
bringing Canada and Germany together on innovation. During
so-called Transatlantic Symposia, the GCC connects academia,
companies, and start-ups to stimulate matchmaking on relevant
innovative themes.
The encounters between researchers, corporates, and entrepreneurs
from various fields at the annual GCC conferences have led over the
past years to fruitful joint German-Canadian projects. On the
occasion of the 50th anniversary of the STI Intergovernmental
Agreement, the GCC wants to showcase success stories of bilateral
cooperation in a series of interviews with members of the GCC
network.
Further, we invite people who want to set up a German-Canadian STI
project to share their vision for future transatlantic cooperation.

The German Canadian Concourse has built over the last years a

series on meaningful STI collaboration between Canada and German

The GCC proudly present this feature as an official contribution to
the 50th anniversary celebration.
