Québec

EMC’s Quebec Consortium presents a perfect opportunity for you to connect with peers in industry, locally and across Canada!

Quebec is the newest addition to the EMC community and I am looking forward to providing some excellent SIG (Strategic Interest Group) Networking Event opportunities for you to participate in throughout the year! During these sessions we will be sharing best practices, organizing plant tours and connecting in group settings as well as on a one-to-one basis. The topics will be relevant, timely and thought-provoking.

I would like to invite you to mark your calendars and join us at one of our upcoming events this year. You can find detailed information on each session below.

Your input and feedback is appreciated! If you are interested in hosting or sharing best practices at any time, I would love to hear from you!
