MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA, May 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Quadbridge and Luqia, an industrial innovation laboratory formed through the merger of INO and CRIM, today announced a strategic collaboration focused on helping mid-market organizations accelerate AI adoption.
This collaboration combines Luqia’s deep expertise in artificial intelligence, innovation, and advanced custom AI solution development with Quadbridge’s experience helping mid-market organizations integrate AI into broader technology, operational, and business transformation strategies. Together, the two organizations are making advanced AI capabilities more accessible to the mid-market.
Luqia brings more than 40 years of experience in advanced photonics and trusted AI, with advanced capabilities spanning text, voice, structured data, imaging, and other complex artificial intelligence applications.

Together, the two organizations offer mid-market companies a more complete path from AI innovation to practical deployment, combining advanced custom AI capabilities with the operational frameworks needed for long-term adoption and measurable business outcomes.
