Looking back on a busy week in Montreal

CANADA

A look back at a rich week in Montreal, where I had the pleasure of meeting many players in the Quebec Information Technology (IT) ecosystem: entrepreneurs, buyers, managers, investors, incubators and consulting firms.

Objectives : better analyze local dynamics, discuss strategic issues in the sector, and identify concrete opportunities for collaboration between Canada and Europe.

Among the main themes covered :

• The challenges of attracting and retaining IT talent in an ultra-competitive environment

• The rise of applied AI, sovereign cloud and B2B software solutions

• Growing demand for sector consolidation and growth financing

• And a strong interest in partnerships with Europe

At Alvora Partners, we firmly believe in value creation through transatlantic synergies : for local companies seeking growth drivers, as well as for European investors seeking agile, innovative and stable ecosystems.

This fourth trip to Montreal this year is part of our ongoing active presence in Canada, with a clear objective: to strengthen sustainable economic bridges between Europe and Quebec.

Thank you to the entrepreneurs, partners and institutions we met for their welcome, their transparency and their vision.

For golf lovers, I would be delighted to cross swords on our next trip ;)
