HOW EWMCE CAN HELP

As for the case with technology project funding, EWMCE works with clients in discussing their claims and providing necessary guidance and advice as far as the testing and/ or verification process is concerned. The entry point is obviously at ETV Canada itself but EWMCE is always glad to work with clients in addressing areas that are not well understood by the client as far as the whole verification process is concerned. Additionally, EWMCE can work with a client in identifying financing opportunities for technology verification purposes.
