Canada’s advanced manufacturing sector is getting even more high tech. ReMAP has developed an end-to-end value chain of electronics sector leaders that includes academia, suppliers, manufacturers, start-ups and companies of all sizes. The network connects the resources and knowledge of 38 labs and factories across Canada, to help partners lower costs, improve processes and bring new products to market faster. For example, Toronto-based Microbonds is collaborating with the University of Waterloo and Celestica to develop a new electrically conductive adhesive material that offers a cheaper and more reliable alternative to solders in consumer and telecommunications products.
