What We Do
Accelerate Canadian Technology
Space Innovation Canada (SIC) is a national accelerator that transforms innovation into capability.
Providing the platforms, pathways, partnerships, and access mechanisms that move Canadian ideas into the sky, into markets, and into trusted allied networks.
From Innovation to Capability
Accelerate Canadian Technology &
Grow the Ecosystem
We advance Canadian innovation by connecting SMEs, researchers, and Indigenous partners with flight testing, microgravity access, buyers, and commercialization pathways.
Through live missions and a national Accelerator, we help late-stage technologies progress from lab validation to mission-ready and commercial use—while embedding workforce development directly into real-world aerospace, defence, and data-driven programs.
Build Critical Infrastructure
We develop anchor inland flight-test capability in the Prairies, complemented by partner test environments across Canada.
This includes modular and scalable test environments, telemetry and tracking capacity, mission-support operations, and a sovereign, deployable data and analytics capability that strengthens insight, readiness, and learning for Canadian and allied innovators.
Grow the Ecosystem
We connect Canadian SMEs, researchers, and Indigenous partners with buyers, training opportunities, and commercialization pathways.
Workforce development is embedded directly into live missions, building the next generation of aerospace, defence, and data-focused professionals.
Unite Allies
We attract international partners and flight-test campaigns through secure inland corridors, shared commercialization networks, and early microgravity access.
By providing sovereign test capability and trusted data environments, SIC strengthens Canada’s role within national and allied innovation systems.
