The Kemano T2 project is set in one of Canada’s most beautiful landscapes, with incredible scenery and wildlife—and some of the riskiest avalanche terrain. Building this project safely involves taking innovative measures to protect both people and the environment.

Major cities everywhere want to increase mobility and improve public transit. Governments are tasked with delivering the goods: effective transportation systems that support faster, more reliable travel and take cars off roads.

The industrial control systems (ICSs) that run big manufacturing plants and processing operations need well-developed back-up measures to safeguard their health and security.

Underground mines have always had their own particular challenges with communications

The availability of new technology is impacting every industry. The challenge organizations now face is focusing on value rather than just implementing the latest technological tool. That's where a structured innovation program can help.

It's time we changed the game plan in mining. The world is running out of accessible, high-grade deposits. So the new reality has to be about efficiency.
