For several decades, Québec has offered a fertile ground for information and communications technology.
Montréal World Class Tech Hub
Representatives of the business community and the universities confirm that if you want to invest in new technologies, launch operations, expand, achieve peak performance and live well, Montréal is the ideal place to do so.
Information and communications technology is at the heart of an emerging economy that turns upon creation and innovation in Québec. It’s easy to see why these companies choose to make the most out of the powerful commercial and financial synergies driving this economy.
Québec boasts significant private and public research infrastructures thanks to the presence of numerous ICT companies and recurring investments from the Government of Québec in numerous specialized research and transfer centres, notably the National Institute of Optics (INO), the Computer Research Institute of Montreal (CRIM), the Society for Arts and Technology (SAT), and the Defence Research and Development Canada centre of Valcartier.
Québec offers attractive fiscal incentives, such as the R&D tax credit, the tax credit for the production of multimedia titles, the tax credit for the development of e-business, the tax credit relating to information technologies in SMBs, and the tax holiday for large investment projects.
Québec is home to business groups and associations such as the TechnoMontréal cluster, the Quebec Technology Association (AQT), Alliance numérique, and PROMPT, a group that promotes the creation of industry-university R&D partnerships in information and communications technology.
Montréal International Game Summit brings together Québec and global industry. In addition to an exposition zone, it features world-class guest speakers, on the business, the art and visual effects, the design or the production and technology of video games. It is Canada’s biggest event of its kind.
