Joanne Beaudin

General Manager

Boasting an MBA and some 30 years of experience as a business and project manager, Joanne Beaudin is known as a developer and visionary. She invested her energy and passion in promoting innovative initiatives in the sectors of agrifood, tourism and social-economy development long before these sectors were fully recognized as future economic drivers for the region.

Her years of experience as the owner of a small agrifood processing business gave Joanne first-hand knowledge of business development tools and how to manage financial and human resources.

andréanne courchesne

Business Advisor and Financial Analyst

Andréanne Courchesne holds a Bachelor’s in Business Administration (international profile) and has worked in the fashion industry for over 10 years. She specializes in commercial development, retail sales, online marketing, and market and business development for small- and medium- sized local businesses.

In the course of her career, she has had the opportunity to launch two business projects that confirmed her strengths as a coordinator and her ability to manage muliple aspects of a business. In turn, this background has given her a keen understanding of the realities facing entrepreneurs. She has always felt a strong attraction to business strategy, planning and analysis, which is why she completed a microprogram in business finance at HEC Montréal to further develop her expertise in financial analysis. This puts her in a perfect position to provide entrepreneurs with advice and support so that they can soundly develop within both local dans international markets.
