PROMPT is a non-profit organization in Canada that supports and finances innovation in the Information Technology sector in Quebec.
Prompt facilitates the creation of industrial-academic R&D partnerships to enhance Quebec's competitiveness in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) market. It enables the formation of new alliances to improve the R&D capabilities of Quebec companies, increase public investments in research, and foster the development of highly qualified personnel.
The organization provides funding for pre-competitive R&D projects involving at least one company and two universities, with the aim of completing these projects within three years to ensure their synergy with the industry and relevance. Prompt acts as a catalyst for the dynamic creation of teams, expanding commercial networks, and generating new opportunities.
Additionally, Prompt plays a key role in creating new relationships between researchers, developers, academic leaders, industry, government, and institutional and private investors in Quebec, and increasingly across Canada and the world. It serves as a vital source of information and a spokesperson for the ICT industry, showcasing virtual technology from Quebec's innovators.
