CQVB

CQVB (Centre québécois de valorisation des biotechnologies) was a prominent non-profit organization based in Quebec City, Canada, dedicated to accelerating the commercialization of biotechnology innovations. Founded in 1987, it served as a critical link between academic research and the industrial sector, providing strategic coaching, funding, and networking opportunities to startups and established firms. The organization focused on various sectors, including human health, agrifood, and the environment, helping to build the foundation of the Quebec biotech cluster. In 2012, its activities and expertise were integrated into Inno-centre to streamline innovation support services in the province.
