The Asia Pacific Partnership includes Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, Korea, and the United States. Member countries have agreed to work together and with private sector partners to meet goals for energy security, national air pollution reduction, and climate change in ways that promote sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction. The Partnership is focused on expanding investment and trade in cleaner energy technologies, and goods and services in key market sectors. The seven partner countries collectively account for more than half of the world's economy, population and energy use, and they produce about 65 percent of the world's coal, 62 percent of the world's cement, 52 percent of world's aluminum, and more than 60 percent of the world's steel.

The National Research Council-Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP) is Canada's premier innovation assistance program for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The IRAP program helps firms to develop technologies and successfully commercialize them in a global marketplace, by providing technical and business advisory services, and financial assistance, to the enterprises they serve.
