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 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.
