\nQu\u00e9bec City\u2019s Ambassadors\u2019 Club and all of its members are feeling extremely optimistic for the future, despite that gatherings and events were recently prohibited due to the global pandemic. A case in point? Seven new influential professionals, mainly from Universit\u00e9 Laval, have joined the Club. They will bring their experience to our organization\u2014and major conventions to Qu\u00e9bec City by 2022.<\/p>\n

The contribution and hard work of the Club\u2019s ambassadors is crucial for attracting major international events to Qu\u00e9bec City. Thanks to their reputation in their respective fields and expansive network of contacts, these dynamic and influential partners help develop Qu\u00e9bec City\u2019s economy and expertise in several key industries<\/a>. For example, in 2019 alone, 16 international conferences that were spearheaded by ambassadors generated over $11M in economic spinoffs for the city.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe dynamic mindset of our ambassadors is simply amazing! Qu\u00e9bec City\u2019s business tourism will soon pick up again thanks in part to these researchers and scientist who are confident about holding events in the city and realized the advantage of getting involved in organizing international conventions. The Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre as well as local hotels, venues, restaurants, tourist attractions, suppliers and all sectors of the city are looking forward to welcoming conferences, business meetings and other events again,\u201d said Mr. Pierre-Michel Bouchard, President of Qu\u00e9bec City Business Destination and President and CEO of the Qu\u00e9bec City Convention Centre.<\/p>\n
