Members found this discussion very interesting and relevant to the challenges that industry will face in the coming years. The three panelists’ point of view complemented each other very well. Each answer to the questions only enriched the conversation with other panelists with more information on this topic, on a more technical side.

“Thanks to everyone who attended this 2024 panel discussion event. Thanks to our panelists and to our moderator for your implication and your time. And finally, a big thanks to the Quebec Region YPN sponsors, Ascot, IPEX, EGLO,  Leviton and Franklin Empire,” said EFC.
