It is particularly important for protecting the interests of all parties involved while promoting innovation and academic integrity. The Research Contract includes specific provisions for compliance with Canadian research ethics guidelines, privacy laws, and sector-specific regulations, making it suitable for both commercial and academic research endeavors.
