Laura’s passion for technology bloomed during her undergraduate degree in Information Systems at McGill University. After graduating, she delved into technology market trends and business transformation at Forrester Research and was also able to apply those methodologies to build out quantitative competitive analyses for clients at a creative agency. Having grown up brainstorming products and services at the dinner table and having kept a close eye on the booming AI and startup ecosystem in Montreal, Laura is thrilled to connect with and learn from Montreal’s passionate entrepreneurs. When she’s not analyzing a market or meeting new people, she loves to be outdoors — hiking, biking, rollerblading — and to fly her Citabria.
