Innovation
Marketbridge actively develops and supports private-sector innovation initiatives spanning artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and next-generation mobility. Current innovation efforts include AI-driven visual recognition platforms for animal detection and deterrence, as well as new human-powered personal use marine vessel designs, including electric-assist propulsion systems.
These initiatives reflect Marketbridge’s broader strategic commitment to expand its role in applied innovation—both within commercial industry and in support of Canada’s national defence priorities. Our innovation roadmap aligns closely with emerging defence requirements in autonomy, sensors, cyber security, and data-centric decision-making.
Marketbridge has participated in structured innovation and acceleration programs through Invest Ottawa. We continue our Invest Ottawa participation

Looking forward, Marketbridge advocates for Canada’s strategic opportunity to become a global leader in advanced drone manufacturing and autonomous systems. This includes the repurposing of existing automotive manufacturing facilities, the reskilling of Canada’s highly capable automotive workforce, and the creation of high-value employment across advanced manufacturing, AI, cyber security, and aerospace supply chains.
National Defence Focus
Marketbridge Technologies is deeply rooted in Canada’s defence and national security ecosystem. Our work spans the design, delivery, and sustainment of secure digital infrastructure supporting mission-critical operations across classified and unclassified environments. We bring hands-on experience supporting Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR), tactical networks, secure data centres, and advanced cyber security initiatives within the Department of National Defence and across the broader Government of Canada.
Our team brings decades of combined experience across network architecture, virtualization, cyber defence, secure cloud adoption, and digital transformation initiatives operating at enterprise scale and in deployed, high-assurance environments. This includes support to multi-domain exercises, joint and coalition interoperability, cross-domain solutions, and secure information exchange with allied partners.
We operate with a strong understanding of Canada’s defence governance, compliance frameworks, and operational realities. Our experience aligns with ITSG-33 (network centric models), NIST RMF, Zero Trust security models, data sovereignty requirements, defence-grade cyber resilience, and the secure integration of commercial technologies into military and government environments. We understand Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability, as well as risk assessment processes, SCARs, and application of security controls.
Marketbridge works across established Government of Canada procurement vehicles and in close collaboration with trusted industry partners to deliver specialized capabilities where required. Whether supporting modernization programs, experimental innovation initiatives, or enterprise sustainment operations, our approach is rooted in transparency, technical excellence, and operational reliability.
As Canada continues its digital modernization and defence transformation, Marketbridge is committed to playing an active role in strengthening sovereign capability, enhancing cybersecurity posture, advancing interoperability with allies, and enabling the secure adoption of emerging technologies across the defence enterprise.
