The MRAM development work was undertaken in accordance with research collaboration agreements among Micromem, the University of Toronto, Dr. Harry Ruda and OCE Inc., a not-for-profit corporation supported through the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development and Trade's (MEDT) Ontario Centres of Excellence program. Micromem believes it has full control over the last three years of the technological innovations arising from the MRAM development work, including, as previously announced the development of the single bit memory prototype.
