Context• Innovation is a key success factor in terms of economic,

social and cultural development.

• Innovation contributes to increase the productivity.

• A competitive Quebec must bet on innovation.

• Innovation forms an integral part of our vision of economic development, that to say: a creative, innovative entrepreneur and warm Quebec.

• The SQRI (2007-2010) has allowed to support innovation in Quebec, but we must follow on with more effort.

Characteristics of mobilizing projects•An inspiring project consists of a set of concrete activities implemented by several partners (companies, research centers, universities, etc.) but carried through by the vision and leadership of industry and its users.•Besides funding from Quebec, this type of project relies on an important funding from industry, federal programs and international organizations.•It has a multiplicative effect on the Quebec economy, the quality of life and the development of critical masses of researchers and innovation with global reach.•It requires the collaboration of partners from different key sectors of Quebec, industrial and academic research milieu as well as intermediation organizations.
