Partners

At its core, then, TRIUMF is a partnership among leading Canadian research universities. Through international partnerships, TRIUMF connects Canada to the global science and technology community. 

Overview

TRIUMF connects and advances Canada’s university-based research ecosystem, tackling problems too large for individual institutions and addressing complex questions in contemporary science. The laboratory has become the leading player of the Canadian “Big Science” ecosystem by acting as a force-multiplier at the intersection of academia, government, and industry.

As a globally sought-after collaborator, we project Canadian leadership and innovation onto the international arena, connecting to national and international laboratories around the world, and translating our research into socioeconomic benefits for Canadians.

UNIVERSITY PARTNERS

INDUSTRY PARTNERS

Our Approach

One of the three primary outcomes of basic research (in addition to knowledge and highly trained personnel) is economic growth, driven either:

  1. By directly applying of scientitic breakthroughs to develop new products and services
  2. By the demands that scientific research places on technology to “stretch,” thereby improving performance or generating new applications.

The third element of TRIUMF’s mission mandates the laboratory to “transfer knowledge” and “commercialize research” for the benefit of Canadians. 

Partner opportunities

Based on these considerations, TRIUMF focuses its innovation and industrial partnership activities in four chief areas:

  • Irradiation services (PIF & NIF)
  • Isotope production and chemistry
  • Technical consulting
  • Professional training
