Product development

Have a great idea for a new product? The Canada/Nova Scotia Business Service Centre’s website provides a helpful introduction to product development issues and resources to ensure that your idea results in a highly successful, money-making product.

You’ll also find detailed information on the intellectual property aspects of product development at the Canadian Intellectual Property Office website. The Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO) is a Special Operating Agency of Industry Canada. It administers the intellectual property (IP) system in Canada and distributes IP information.

Many of the programs and services referenced on our website offer support for various aspects of product development. Visit the Technology Development Assistance and Financial Assistance sections of this site for more information.
