Lucie Loignon

Ottawa Chapter President

“As a senior executive in information technology, staying connected with industry peers has been key to my successes. CIOCAN offers a unique and cost-effective platform to engage with leaders across the public, private, and academic sectors. With both online and in-person events held across Canada, it provides invaluable opportunities to stay ahead of emerging technologies. Don’t miss out on this chance to grow and succeed. I am particularly excited about our upcoming two-day conference in Ottawa on May 28-29: The Rise of the Makers: Orchestrating Value at Scale.”
