Sylvain Viau
Montreal Chapter President

“Summer of 2020, I became a member of CIOCAN, seeking to join other CIOs and CISOs to exchange on the multiple challenges we face. I immediately had the opportunity to connect with my peers across Canada and attend CIOCAN events and especially the monthly café reserved for CISOs. I found very useful and directly applicable in my work, these exchanges oriented on our reality. I am very pleased and proud to participate in the long-awaited launch of the Montreal Chapter, now offering the opportunity to develop the local professional network and share the numerous benefits of being a CIOCAN member.”
