Description: George Weston Limited and Loblaw Companies Limited are delighted to launch our Seeding Food Innovation Grants 2016 to provide seed funding for trans-disciplinary research proposals that address food and health challenges that will impact Canadians and are of global concern.

Application Details:

The application process consists of two stages: Letters of Intent (LOI) and Proposal. Only applicants who submit an LOI may be invited to submit a full proposal to enter the second stage. The LOI stage of the application process is a significant stage of evaluation. Only a small proportion of the applicants will be invited to submit full proposals. It is our intention that the LOI should be easy to submit so no good ideas are missed and those taking the time to write a full proposal have a very good chance of being funded.

Successful LOI's will be invited to submit a full application.

INDIRECT COSTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE

NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
