Background

Created in 2013, the MaRS Solutions Lab is a public and social innovation lab that brings together governments, foundations, corporations, non-governmental organizations, academia, and the greater community to help unravel complex problems from the citizen’s perspective. They collaborate with users and stakeholders to develop, prototype, and scale new solutions, and create opportunities to learn how to change the systems that help us thrive in the 21st century.
