Ontario BioAuto Investment Fund

The Ontario BioAuto Council Investment Fund is a $5-million fund that targets commercialization and market development of biomaterials destined for Ontario’s automotive sector.

  • BioAuto Investment Fund projects are expected to commercialize bio-based materials. This could include incorporating existing market-ready bio-based materials into Ontario-made products, application projects and new material concepts. Commercialization must be illustrated through product sales or buyer commitment at the end of the project.
  • Commercialization is expected before March 31, 2010.
  • Projects that involve only proof of concept research will not be funded.
  • Projects that do not involve a renewable feedstock will not be funded.
  • Bio-fuel technologies are not eligible, though projects which involve the use of byproducts from bio-fuel production to produce other biomaterials will be welcomed.
