The Balsillie Family Foundation Fund (previously, the ILRP Fund) was a ten-year, integrated and multi-disciplinary research program that provides leading academics, government and private sector legal experts, as well as students from Canada and abroad with the opportunity to contribute to advancements in international law. The law program was initiated on September 1, 2013 and was funded equally between CIGI and the Province of Ontario. The following were the ILRP’s three primary areas of focus: international intellectual property law, international environmental laws and treaties, and international economic, financial and investment law, regulation and governance. During the year, the provincial government terminated the agreement and indicated that the program would only be funded under the terms of the agreement until May 16, 2019. After this date, no further funding will be received for the program from the provincial government. The remaining fund balance will be utilized for future strategic opportunities according to the terms of the agreement with the private donor.
