The program aims to provide funding to be used as a strategic lever to support the creation of research chairs, programs requiring complementary funding or promising projects (in terms of new collaborations between regular RQEI research members). It therefore aims to promote the emergence of collaborative and intersectoral projects in each of the RQEI’s research axes, while contributing to the advancement of scientific knowledge. This type of financing is quick to obtain and can also be used to prepare for the first phase of a project. Inter-school projects will be encouraged.

The program aims to provide funding to be used as a strategic lever to support the creation of research chairs, programs requiring additional funding or promising projects (in terms of new collaborations between regular RQEI research members). It is therefore designed to encourage the emergence of collaborative, cross-sector projects in each of RQEI’s research areas, while contributing to the advancement of scientific knowledge. Quick to obtain, this type of funding can also be used to prepare the first phase of a project. Inter-institutional projects are encouraged.
