      Historique

      The Innovation and Product Development Branch was created within the Industry Division of the newly created Ontario Ministry of Industry and Trade in 1982. It had no immediate predecessor within the Ministry of Industry and Tourism.

      The branch was divided into sections. The Product Development Section developed policies and programs to encourage sales of Ontario-made products in Canada. The Technology Development Section assisted in the management of two high-technology systems: the Telidon System, and Ontario's educational microcomputer initiative. The Film and Video Office promoted and marketed Ontario as a world-class centre for feature film and television production, and the Office of Procurement Policy promoted procurement as an industrial development tool and acted as an advocate for maximizing Canadian content in public purchases.

      In 1984, the Innovation and Product Development Branch ceased to exist. It was replaced, at least in part, by the Business Development Branch (which was known briefly as the Domestic Marketing Branch).
