In addition to a recent influx of public funds, Martello Technologies (TSX-V:MTLO) will also accelerate its product development with a new source of federal funding.
The Ottawa-based communications services firm announced Monday morning it will receive up to $2 million from the National Research Council’s Industrial Research Assistance Program, known more commonly as IRAP. The program is designed to help Canadian enterprises commercialize their products and services.
Martello said in a release that the IRAP funding will help it to hire 11 new employees and “accelerate” the development of its network performance management services.
