Partners-researchers “Speed Networking” Think-Tank Meeting

Our first partners-researchers meeting in English will be held on January 17, 2019, from 1 to 4 pm, in Montreal.

We have organized several meetings of this kind in French before, but this will be the first time that the activity will be held in English. All are welcome!
