MERLIN’s work is closely connected to the people and teams across Manitoba’s public service who help make technology work for Manitobans.

Today, we’re highlighting the Department of Innovation and New Technology (MINT), the branch of government where MERLIN is currently located. MINT works to help Manitobans and businesses make the most of new technology, while supporting the modernization of government services, security, and networks across the province.

For MERLIN, that connection means being part of a broader team focused on collaboration, innovation, and keeping the technology that Manitobans rely on working together.

We’re proud to be part of that work. 💻
