As partner organization, we at Aumintec Inc. are thrilled to congratulate the University of Windsor (UWindsor) on their remarkable achievement in leading the $15 million INSPIRE initiative. This groundbreaking project aims to enhance Canada’s pandemic preparedness by strengthening the country's biomanufacturing sector.
INSPIRE, which stands for the Integrated Network for the Surveillance of Pathogens: Increasing Resilience and Capacity in Canada’s Pandemic Response, brings together a diverse team of 43 experts from seven universities, along with public and private agencies from both Canada and the United States. Their mission is to improve biomanufacturing and health sector supply chains, bolster cross-border trade, and explore innovative technologies for pathogen surveillance.
We are proud to be one of the partners and support this initiative by providing 96-well real time qPCR systems and associated technical support that will aid in research being conducted. Our partnership with UWindsor highlights our shared commitment to advancing scientific research and improving public health.

Dr. Mike McKay, director of UWindsor’s Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research, and his team are spearheading this vital project. Their work will significantly enhance Canada’s ability to respond to future pandemics by developing proactive strategies and improving supply chain resilience.
This funding, announced by federal Tourism Minister Soraya Martinez Ferrada, is part of a broader $574 million investment in 19 projects aimed at strengthening Canada’s capacity to supply medicines, vaccines, and therapeutics.
We are honored to be part of this collaborative effort, which includes local partners like the WE-Spark Health Institute, the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit, and cross-border partners such as the City of Detroit’s Great Lakes Water Authority.
Together, we are paving the way for a safer and more resilient future. Congratulations once again to UWindsor on this incredible milestone!
