Since its inception, the CLS3 thrives to pioneer, develop, and test new ideas within a technically aggressive yet commercially competitive research environment. The benefits are not only innovative solutions to immediate challenges, but also a means of exploring the science and technology of future generations of devices and systems

Internationally, CLS3 is well known, having launched and established
the first collaboration between key organizations from Canada,
Europe and US in this field, which contributed
to create CANEUS (www.caneus.org).
