CURA Joins MaRS

MaRS is empowering CURA’s mission to decarbonize cement with the strength of Canada’s leading innovation ecosystem.

We are proud to announce that CURA has joined the MaRS Discovery District community, North America’s largest urban innovation hub, whose ecosystem supports over 1,200 technology and science firms, has raised more than $19 billion in capital and employs over 33,000 people across Canada.

At CURA, we are reinventing how cement is produced. Our breakthrough technology offers the potential to cut CO2 emissions by up to 85 % without increasing cost. We provide a retrofit-ready solution so that producers can continue providing the industry-standard cement product, Ordinary Portland cement (OPC), without the emissions. Our solution has earned us a place within the MaRS community, and we view this as a key endorsement of our ambition to make Canadian innovation count and have real impact.

Joining MaRS has opened new doors for collaboration, learning and growth for the CURA team. With access to their curated network of innovators, investors, researchers and entrepreneurs, we  will accelerate our development and scale‐up efforts. 

Here’s to the next chapter of innovation and impact—together with the MaRS community.
