OTTAWA, July 12 (Reuters) - Canada on Monday said it would require detailed evaluations of university research partnerships in order to protect intellectual property rights and keep sensitive information out of the hands of foreign governments. By requiring that risk assessments be submitted with research funding requests, these new mandatory guidelines will help protect Canadian research, knowledge and intellectual property, Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said in the statement. We will not take chances with Canada s national and economic security. Projects that are deemed high risk, or where the risk cannot be mitigated, will not be funded, he added.
