With that in mind, two business information professionals with a very different client base and deliverable objective, will present an overview of business information and sources to demonstrate how these can match-up depending on client needs.
Melissa Troemel from the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Beatrice Kerr from Deloitte will share their expertise with us. Please RSVP to register.tall@gmail.com
