Dal Innovates turns promising ideas into revenue-generating businesses

Dalhousie University is Atlantic Canada’s leading research-intensive university. Located in the heart of Halifax, Nova Scotia, with an agricultural campus in Truro/Bible Hill, Dalhousie is a truly national and international university, with more than half of the university’s 20,000-plus students coming from outside the province. Dal’s 6,000 faculty and staff foster a diverse, purpose-driven community, one that spans 13 faculties and conducts more than $250 million in research annually. Our researchers have global impact—whether it’s as an international leader in ocean and environmental science helping to fight climate change, through research commercialization that contributes to our regional and national economies, by influencing policies that advance equity and civil society, or health discoveries that improve our wellbeing and longevity.
