The Ontario Research Network for Electronic Commerce (ORNEC) was established in 2001 as a collaborative project between ORDCF (Ontario Research and Development Challenge Fund) and the University of Ottawa in partnership with the three Ontario Universities (McMaster, Carleton and Queen’s) and leading private and public sector partners. The term of the ORNEC Agreement between the University of Ottawa and ORDCF is June 15, 2001 to November 30, 2008 and ORNEC Projects are expected to be completed on or before December 31, 2007
The mandate of ORNEC is to establish multidisciplinary research in all aspects of eCommerce involving law, business and information technology. ORNEC private sector partners supporting ORNEC research include large corporations as well as SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) from the Information Technology, Business and Law Sectors. ORNEC funding and support comes from three sources:
- $13,364,567 ORDCF Grant from the Government of Ontario
- $13,364,567 in cash and/or inkind from private sector partners
- $14,282,806 in cash and/or inkind from participating institutions
