Sarnia-Lambton is historically known for their petrochemical industry. In recent years, there has been a strong and concentrated effort to diversify the industry in the region utilizing the existing capacity and expertise in a few areas including Biotechnology and Information Technology and Communication (ITC). As part of this effort, Sarnia-Lambton is strategically positioning itself to build, support and attract ITC start-ups and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) to the region to form "Sarnia-Lambton Digital Technology and IT Cluster". Many regional or newly attracted companies are SMEs lacking R&D capabilities. Lambton College as an only local post-secondary institution is establishing a suite of comprehensive applied research and development service points that will form the "Information Technology and Communication Research Centre (ITCRC)". The ITCRC's goal is to support the ITC industry with applied research and technological development by providing research facilities and expertise through students and faculty. Lambton College through ITCRC will collaborate with industrial partners to conduct applied research, technology development, testing, prototyping, and commercialization in various areas including: software development, database management, smart computing, artificial intelligence algorithms, big data, android and iOS native applications, virtual reality, responsive web applications, parallel & distributed computing, and e-business. ITCRC has initially attracted eight projects in partnership with industry and will also benefit from close partnerships with local organizations including Sarnia-Lambton Economic Partnership and Sarnia Lambton Research Park to develop more projects, bring new and improved technologies to market and consequently generate economic impact in our community and beyond. ITCRC will also provide an excellent opportunity to educate highly qualified personnel and enhance 17 IT related programs at the College. The ITCRC initiative will stimulate economic development through technology transfer to the partners and will allow the Sarnia-Lambton region to exploit the ITC-industry market.
