Buy Smart: How public procurement can help achieve our climate and economic goals
While Canada is a global leader in cleantech innovation, it falls short in adopting these solutions at scale. MaRS plays a catalytic role by supporting the commercialization of these essential technologies, helping stakeholders move beyond conversations to action. More specifically, Mission from MaRS: Public Procurement seeks to tackle structural and behavioural barriers that impede public-sector cleantech procurement on both the supply and demand sides. This report breaks down what we’ve learned through the first year of this program working with ventures, industry experts and government at all levels, and includes key takeaways for supporting the adoption of scalable, high-impact climate solutions by the public sector.
