Federal Budget 2014 contained little that was unexpected, with a few surprise announcements of funding for research and innovation initiatives that potentially blinker an overall neglect of the area. How does this budget fit into the overall pattern of the last few years and the government's track record on support for R&D and innovation initiatives?

For the last few years, the annual RE$EARCH MONEY conference has put the federal budget under a spotlight, analyzing trends, digging out hidden implications and identifying challenges. This year, we continue the conversation as the government's role in Canada's innovation

environment becomes increasingly critical. We bring together prominent players from industry, investment, academia, government and intermediaries so that all perspectives can be heard — a vital undertaking if Canada is to move forward.
