For the past 6 years, Dominique Monchamp, our General Manager has managed our family foundation, the de Gasp\u00e9 Beaubien Foundation, with tremendous energy and passion. The success we have seen with the last two AquaHacking Summits is a tribute to this passion for freshwater conservation, which she shares with the rest of our family. We are very pleased and proud of her outstanding contribution over the years. We will continue to count on Dominique\u2019s expertise as consultant to our AquaHacking 2017 project as well as pursuing her mandate of estate manager.<\/p>\n
Effective immediately, Mr. Claude Perras will be managing the de Gasp\u00e9 Beaubien Foundation as Executive Director. Claude has over 25 years’ experience within global corporations, international development organisations and several not for profit. Until recently he was working as a Consultant in the Environment, Social and Governance Department at the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group. He is the former Vice President of Sustainability and a member of the Executive Committee of London Mining PLC, listed on London Stock Exchange. Claude\u2019s extensive career includes notable roles at Rio Tinto, Alcan, UNITERRA, and CECI. He holds a Master of Management from McGill University; a Diploma in Social Development from the Coady International Institute at St. Francis Xavier University; Bachelor of Arts in Social Science with a double Major in Economics and Political Science from the University of Ottawa.<\/p>\n
