Kingston, ON. Canada
Supporting Scale-Up Together
RXN HUB was born to empower the chemtech ecosystem to advance the commercialization of chemical technologies.
A coalition of leading organizations from across the Canadian innovation ecosystem came together with a shared mission: to accelerate the commercialization of technologies that impact the way we live, what we called “ChemTech”.
Chemistry is essential to modern society, but bringing new chemical technologies to market—ones that can improve our quality of life—is hindered by massive costs, infrastructure challenges, and knowledge barriers.
Rooted in a first-of-its-kind facility in Kingston, Ontario - a city recognized for its rich chemical history and leadership in sustainability as the first in a Canadian city to declare a climate emergency - RXN HUB is the solution to achieve that mission. Built in collaboration with the “doers” of the ecosystem, and led by industry experts who have faced these commercialization challenges firsthand, RXN HUB offers innovators the infrastructure, strategic guidance, and connected environments required to navigate their path to lasting impact.
Built by the ecosystem, for the ecosystem. RXN HUB was founded by:
20+ year old world-leading contract research & development organization in metallurgical chemistry.
Canada's leading bioeconomy organization providing critical strategic investment, advice, and services.
National industry association for the cleantech industry that focuses on advocacy and policy.
