When Queens University founded PARTEQ in 1987, they envisioned a not-for-profit organization that would bridge the gap between technological innovation and the marketplace.

Taking on the ‘silent epidemic’
Ozone – this little molecule is an invisible part of our everyday lives. It shields us from ultraviolet light, cleans our water, and in some cases, filters the air that we breathe.
Now Medizone, a company based in Queens University’s Innovation Park, is tapping into one of ozone’s many properties in a revolutionary way that could potentially save thousands of lives.
We are pleased to present to you the second issue of the Canadian Association of University Research Park's 'canada NOW' magazine.
This publication represents the collective voice of 27 Canadian research parks located coast to coast. While every park is unique, each is focused on fostering commercialization, innovation, and economic competitiveness in a global economy through collaboration amongst universities, industry and government.
