As part of its founding legislation, Alberta Ingenuity is required to form an International Board of Review (IBR) every six years to evaluate the performance of Ingenuity and to make recommendations on its operations.
Ingenuity’s first International Board of Review, chaired by Dr. Alan Bernstein, consisted of six scientists and engineers, each internationally recognized for their leadership in research and innovation.
For the past several months, Alberta Ingenuity, the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research, the Alberta Research Council, and iCORE have been working with Advanced Education and Technology to address the government mandate to align Alberta’s research and innovation system.
Although many of the specific details are still unknown, Alberta Ingenuity and its partners are committed to providing timely communications to stakeholders as more information becomes available.
