Join us on Thursday, October 26 at 11:30 a.m. for the Chamber’s first talk by Maud Cohen, president of Polytechnique Montréal.
As the birthplace of French-language engineering in North America, for the past 150 years Polytechnique Montréal has contributed to technological and scientific innovations that have changed the world and, in particular, shaped modern-day Quebec.
Constantly at the forefront of society’s needs, and strengthened by a diverse student body representing more than 125 countries, this beacon of university education and research is more committed than ever to the pivotal role it plays in our collective quest for solutions to present and future challenges.
Maud Cohen, who was appointed President of the institution a year ago, will highlight how Polytechnique works to develop talent that can drive change, and how it fosters an innovation mindset across its community so as to create a better world.
