Canada

BIT Canada opened its doors in 2019. Since then, we have generated social impact across the country by applying evidence about human behaviour to the design of programs, policies, technology, and communications.

We partner with all levels of government, nonprofits, foundations, and the private sector to deliver evidence-based solutions and rigorous evaluations. Some of our clients include the Government of Canada, Government of British Columbia, Ville de Montréal, Ontario Securities Commission, WoodGreen Community Services, United Way-Halton Hamilton, the Daymark Foundation, East Toronto Health Partners, and Sun Life Financial.

Over 70+ projects, we have helped these clients achieve results in a wide range of areas, including:

• Making workplaces more equitable, 
• Protecting investors from dark patterns and high-risk gamification tactics, 
• Reimagining the delivery of employment services, 
• Identifying policy mechanisms to reduce emissions, and 
• Helping accelerate the diagnosis of complex mental health issues. 

We also help organizations build their own research and evaluation capacity. From setting up a new behavioural science function to growing a mature, interdisciplinary team, we bring BIT’s global expertise and experience to Canadian organizations. Contact us to learn more.

“The [BIT Canada] team was very professional, competent, creative, friendly, and flexible.” — Patrick Byrne, Ontario Ministry of Transportation
