Who are we?

Created in 2005, INNOV is the New Brunswick Community College (NBCC) network of innovation and applied research centers. We work directly with businesses and organizations in Atlantic Canada to transform ideas, needs, or technological challenges into concrete solutions that are tested and adapted to real-world conditions.

Our mission is to support businesses and organizations in researching and implementing innovative solutions through applied research, technical assistance, training, and strategic marketing support. Our approach is based on interdisciplinary collaboration, agility, and measurable impact. We combine the strengths of the CCNB’s innovation centers to offer comprehensive support, from proof of concept to commercialization.

Spread across several sites in New Brunswick, our innovation centers bring together teams specializing in advanced manufacturing, advanced materials, bioprocesses, the environment, agriculture, artificial intelligence, and technological development. Our approach is simple: to support businesses in a pragmatic, rapid, and collaborative manner by providing them with expertise, equipment, and state-of-the-art infrastructure.

Whether you are an SME, a growing business, or an organization seeking development and innovation, INNOV acts as your innovation arm: an accessible partner to analyze, test, prototype, and accelerate your projects.
