Eligibility and Requirements
Your goal is our goal: To bring AI out of the lab and into the field, where real applications can make real differences in supply chain effectiveness.
Scale AI helps companies enhance their AI-based product and service offerings, as well as assists with AI go-to-market strategies to boost revenues.
Our mission is to make the adoption of AI easier across industries, driving productivity and boosting competitiveness.
We reimburse up to 50% of expenses for approved projects that target the adoption or commercialization of AI for supply chains
Who we fund

We look for innovative, collaborative projects that are leveraging AI to help make supply chains more intelligent and more efficient, such as:
- Supply chain operators

- AI and digital technology providers
What we look for
- Augmented sourcing and procurement
- Demand forecasting and planning
- Automated in-plant logistics/warehousing
- Capacity, resource utilization and inventory planning

By investing in companies financially and with other valuable resources, we’re helping establish Canada’s position as a leader in intelligent supply chains.
