EFC

Apr 29, 2019

Taking place May 28-30 in Quebec City, the event and its speakers address a multitude of industry shifts under the theme, “Powering a Changing World.”

“The theme speaks to our industry’s need to service the new world we live in, as technology in today’s world is quickly evolving,” says Jean-Sebastien Bercier, Chair, National Advisory Council and Conference. “Our industry feels the effects of change on two fronts. First, the rapid change in the types of technology we sell, and secondly, the rapid change in the way we sell our technology.”

Speakers for the conference’s business program, May 29-30, were carefully selected for their ability to share insights and outlooks. Here’s a quick look at who’s speaking:

    • Leonard Brody will inspire you to take on unique opportunities for a growth mindset
