How is intellectual property (IP) managed in CFIN-funded projects?

Written by CFIN Staff

IP Requirements

You must define how intellectual property (IP) will be managed in your project.

This is especially important if you work with:

  • Consultants

  • Academic partners

  • Service providers

Ownership Rules

  • IP developed through CFIN-funded projects must remain in Canada.

  • This requirement applies for at least 5 years after project completion.

  • Exceptions require written approval from the Minister.
