Technology Partnerships Canada (TPC) is providing Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) with $207 million — the single largest amount of funding assistance since its launch in 1996. The three projects are worth more than $1 billion and underpin P&WC’s small gas turbine engine program, helping to solidifying its status as Canada’s premier performer of aerospace-related R&D

P&WC — a subsidiary of United Technologies Corp, Hartford CT — has a global mandate for small gas turbine engines and supports a staff of more than 6,500 in Canada.
