WHO WE ARE

From a small operation in Toronto to Canada's only Technology Ally, we've come a long way in helping organizations realize new possibilities.

To innovate industries, transform businesses, connect communities, and drive meaningful change, we must think bigger, reach broader, and act bolder. Through over four decades of knowledge, curiosity, and collaboration, Compugen helps organizations deliver experience by design. This is what it means to be human-centered and technology-enabled.

Driven to Make a Difference

When you have innovation at hand and intention in your heart, one person can drive change. With one word, one device, one connection; change ignites, and all will flourish.

Enabling Digital Prosperity

“Our initiatives demonstrate Compugen’s commitment to the Indigenous businesses and communities of Canada with clear and tangible impacts. In the technology business, we leverage the tools to empower people with technology and Internet access and work towards digital equity.

 

We are always exploring new ways to engage with Indigenous groups with the help of our partners, whether through education and skill development, community building, employment, or supporting Indigenous business.”
