The ENCQOR offering
LEARN ABOUT WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU
The ENCQOR Project, spearheaded by five global digital technology leaders — Ciena, Ericsson, Thales Canada, CGI and IBM Canada — will mobilise large businesses, SMEs, the public and semi-public sectors, public research centres and universities.
Whether you are a researcher, an IT professional, a student or an entrepreneur; whether your company is actively engaged in the technology sector or simply wants to make the shift to 5G, ENCQOR has a value proposition to suit each of these types of users.
TWO INNOVATION HUBS AT YOUR SERVICE
Starting in the Fall of 2018, ENCQOR will give you access to two open innovation hubs: one at CENTECH, at Montreal’s ÉTS, the other in the space of the Thales Research Center and Mixed Research Unit in Urban Sciences (UMRsu). These hubs will house ENCQOR’s technological infrastructure in Quebec. You will have on-site access, with remote access also available for most of the technologies offered.
Actual state-of-the-art development and test beds, the infrastructure available at these two innovation hubs will enable you to develop and test platforms and new next generation products and services using the 5G network.
In addition, these innovation hubs will offer many complementary services outside their technological infrastructures to help users gain the full potential of 5G networking. Notably, through technical support, training, workshops and conferences.
