All the origins are clearly identified
A vision that comes to life
From the outset, Opportuna Conseil has distinguished itself through its unique understanding of Quebec's innovation support ecosystem. The company quickly forged close ties with key players in territorial development, research, and innovation, placing people at the heart of its innovation support approach.
This distinctive approach is based on a deep conviction: supporting innovation is not just a matter of technology, but above all a matter of capacity building and collective impact. It is with this in mind that Opportuna Conseil collaborates with ambitious socio-economic leaders, guiding them through their transformation and helping them take full advantage of the ecosystem that surrounds them.
