AUTO21 2011 Call for Proposals

AUTO21 announces a Call for Letters of Intent for automotive-focused research projects to be conducted over 24 months commencing April 1, 2012. Applicants whose letters of intent are successful will be invited to submit a full proposal detailing their research project.

Call for letters of intent documents are available for download on www.auto21.ca. In reviewing the materials you will note that the process requires a brief letter of intent to be submitted by May 31, 2011 identifying the project leader responsible for coordinating and reporting on the work of a research team, the other members of the research team, the major industrial or other external supporting partners and the basic aim of the proposed research project, as well as a proposed budget.

These letters will be reviewed and those research teams who will be invited to prepare a full proposal will be contacted by July 8, 2011. Full proposals will be due on September 30, 2011.

We look forward to welcoming new members to the AUTO21 community. In 2010, an independent economic impact study was conducted using selected AUTO21 projects and determined that the Network has yielded a $1.1B return on investment in terms of social and economic benefits to Canada. Formed in March 2001, AUTO21 is now enjoying a high degree of success in moving forward Canada's largest industrial sector.

Sincerely,

Dr. Peter R. Frise, FCAE, FEC, P.Eng.
