Canada’s federal government is partnering with Nokia on a major research initiative that will expand the Finnish technology firm’s Ottawa innovation campus and create more than 340 jobs. Supported by a $40-million Strategic Response Fund investment, Nokia will conduct research focused on AI, quantum technologies, and next-generation networks.
Nokia Canada president Jeffrey Maddox said the project strengthens Canada’s position in secure, sustainable digital infrastructure. Federal ministers Mélanie Joly, Evan Solomon, and Jenna Sudds emphasized the initiative’s role in building talent, advancing 5G, and fuelling economic growth. Nokia has invested over $1 billion in Canadian R&D in recent years.
