EXCLUSIONS 1. Science centers and museums located within 90 miles* of the science center/museum where the visitor is a member. 2. Science centers and museums located within 90 miles* of the visitor’s residence. *This distance is measured “as the crow flies,” meaning that it is based on the linear radius, not driving distance.

Ingenium has now entered its second half-century, and the future of the corporation remains bright as it continues to share the stories of Canadian scientific and technological achievement, while exploring the creative and curious minds driving that achievement. Through its many activities, from exhibitions and maker events to apps and summer camps, Ingenium celebrates the innovative spirit of Canadians everywhere. More to the point, Ingenium is actually helping to build that same spirit by encouraging people to think outside the box, through thought-provoking programs and educational initiatives. During this fiscal year, the new Canada Science and Technology Museum marked its first anniversary. It is a source of pride to everyone at Ingenium that the Museum opened on time and on budget, and that it continues to enjoy rave reviews and record attendance. Another major Ingenium undertaking this year has been the Collections Conservation Centre, which is now nearing completion.

    INNOVATION150: LESSONS LEARNED ON NATIONAL PAN-ORGANIZATIONAL OUTREACH COLLABORATIONS | 1 | 2 INNOVATION150: LESSONS LEARNED ON NATIONAL PAN-ORGANIZATIONAL OUTREACH COLLABORATIONS Summary Innovation150 was a national partnership that offered awe-inspiring educational experiences for youth, families, and communities across Canada in celebration of the nation’s sesquicentennial in 2017. Made possible through support from the Department of Canadian Heritage’s Canada 150 Fund and generous partners and sponsors, Innovation150 included two travelling science exhibitions, a mobile makerspace, innovation festivals, and a digital hub with crowdsourced innovation stories, contests, and classroom resources. This highly successful outreach initiative was led by Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, in collaboration with Actua, the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo, the Canadian Association of Science Centres and its members, and Ingenium – Canada’s Museums of Science and Technology. Together with regional partners across Canada, these organizations created meaningful and enriching activities that fostered a culture of innovation and inspired the next generation of social and technological innovators. This whitepaper shares the lessons that these partners learned in coming together and executing on this multifaceted outreach project.
