For over 10 years, a non-profit carried two major digital events, helping shape Quebec City’s tech ecosystem. Then—without warning—everything collapsed: political cuts, cancelled funding, no public explanation. The result? A sudden void.
But that was just the beginning.
Refusing to let years of effort vanish, a handful of passionate people rolled up their sleeves. Armed with determination—and EDGY, an innovative business strategy game—they rebuilt. A new NPO emerged, the events returned, and new gatherings reignited the scene.
Now, they’re not just surviving. With EDGY, they’re building a bold, sustainable vision for the future.
