Coral CEA (www.coralcea.ca) is a non-profit company that is implementing a unique business ecosystem-based commercialization process to provide strategic business advantage to its members.

More elements will follow. The Sandbox utilizes physical servers and cloud computing environments from multiple vendors. Associated with the project is the creation of a web portal and communication enabled tools and applications to be used by members of Coral CEA.
