$100,000 is available to enterprises in Eastern Ontario that meet the eligibility requirements through the Eastern Ontario Development Program (EODP).
Projects in these sectors are eligible for funding:
- advanced manufacturing (automotive, aerospace, plastics, clean technologies)
- life sciences
- processing (primary and secondary)
- information and communication technology
- tourism
- cultural industries
Northbridge has a recent post on some of the details of the program:
Several expenditures are eligible for funding from the EODP, including marketing activities, research and development, internship and job placement initiatives, as well as development-based activities in industries including manufacturing and tourism. Additionally, trade show attendance is also considered an eligible cost, and up to 20% of equipment-related expenditures are eligible for reimbursement.”
