TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Aug. 15, 2017) - Wavefront Wireless Commercialization Centre Society ("Wavefront"), a Canadian Centre of Excellence, has expanded to include a Toronto office located at 240 Richmond Street, at the new WeWork Coworking space. Wavefront's growing footprint across Canada strengthens its ability to deliver on its vision to build a globally relevant, nationally connected ecosystem that delivers digital capacity, competitiveness and prosperity for Canadians.
