Canada is responding to a critical political and economic imperative to modernize its armed forces and better defend national interests. As the country looks to strengthen its domestic defence and security sectors, the University of Ottawa is mobilizing to support this domestic industrial evolution. As a top-ranked research-intensive university, uOttawa is uniquely industry-ready, offering specialized expertise across 10 faculties in defence-relevant fields. In this bonus episode of Techopia Live, OBJ publisher Michael Curran sits down with two leaders from the university to discuss how they are bridging the gap between academic research and high-impact industry collaboration. The conversation features Caroline Cao, the Dean of uOttawa’s Faculty of Engineering, and Muralee Murugesu, Associate Vice-President of Innovation, Partnerships and Entrepreneurship. The discussion highlights how uOttawa is currently leading the charge in critical technological frontiers, including AI, cyber security, and photonics.
