2 013 ACTIVITY REPORT
2013:
A YEAR OF ACHIEVEMENT
AND SUCCESS
As our annual report shows,
2013 was a banner year for
Montréal International (MI).
With support from its partners,
MI has grown to become a key
economic driver in the Greater
Montréal area.
The organization helped 39 subsidiaries
of foreign companies set up or expand their
operations in Greater Montréal, creating
or maintaining 2,729 jobs and bringing
in $1.28 billion in foreign direct
investment—86% more than in 2012.
Industry-specific
prospecting strategies
developed with the region’s
clusters have paid off once
again, as close to 80%
of 2013 investments went
to high-tech industries.
With this targeted approach, Greater
Montréal topped the list for best foreign direct
investment strategy in the American Cities
of the Future 2013/14 ranking by fDi Magazine,
a Financial Times publication.
MI also supported international organizations
(IO) established in Montréal by being actively
involved in keeping the headquarters of the
International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO) in Montréal and helping Airports
Council International (ACI) expand after
relocating from Geneva to Montréal in 2011.
Additionally, MI organized 63 prospecting
missions abroad and 36 activities to support
local IOs.
Furthermore, 1,335 highly skilled workers
benefited from MI’s expert advice – making
it easier for them to apply for temporary or
permanent resident visas. By coordinating
the participation of close to 30 Greater
Montréal businesses in three recruitment
missions in the U.S. and Europe, MI also helped
hire 186 skilled and experienced workers and
expand the area’s pool of top-end talent.

Normand Legault
Chairman of the
Board of Directors
of Montréal International
One of the highlights of 2013 was undoubtedly
the appointment of Dominique Anglade
as President and CEO of MI. Her strong
leadership and exceptional track record
make her particularly well suited to lead
the organization through its next stage
of development. And I would like to take
this opportunity to assure her once more
of our full support and cooperation.
I would also like to thank
all MI partners, including private
companies, the governments
of Canada and Québec, the
Communauté métropolitaine
de Montréal, and the City of
Montréal, for their invaluable
support. This public-private
partnership is what keeps
our organization going.
Last but not least, I would like to extend
my thanks to our Board of Directors, made
up of members of the business community
and representatives of the three levels of
government, who are so willing and determined
to help put Greater Montréal back in the race
and secure the region’s future prosperity.

To compete with the world’s major cities
and significantly increase its attractiveness,
Greater Montréal also needs the full support
of its citizens. I particularly encourage our
partners, the business community, and
institutions of higher learning to take action
and serve as the region’s ambassadors
to better promote its economic strengths.
That is why, earlier this year, the MI Board
of Directors adopted a new strategic plan,
which sets even more ambitious and more
challenging goals for 2014-2018. Now more
than ever, we must build on Greater Montréal’s
unique strengths, including its creative
workforce and optimal operating costs, which
are the most competitive in North America.
I cannot end without thanking Normand
Legault and our Board members for the trust
they have placed in me and for their invaluable
contribution to the growth of Montréal
International and Greater Montréal.
We must also seize
opportunities that come our way,
take advantage of the free trade
agreements with the European
Union and South Korea,
and assess the potential
of new growth markets.
AMBITION
AUDACITY
ARDOUR
First of all, I would like
to congratulate all Montréal
International employees and my
predecessor, Jacques St-Laurent,
who have helped make Greater
Montréal even more competitive
and successful in 2013.
The Montréal metropolitan area must be able
to increase its attractiveness in order to
expand its role as the driver of the province’s
economy. To achieve growth, we need to create
more wealth. How? By attracting more foreign
investments, international organizations, and
skilled workers, which in turn will lead to better
jobs and higher tax revenues for the region.
Our success stories give
us tremendous momentum
and help us drive new goals
for Greater Montréal—a must
in an environment where the
world’s urban regions are fiercely
competing against each other.
To rise to the challenge, Greater Montréal needs
a solid footing and a strong driver of economic
development. And that is where Montréal
International comes in. Our organization plays
an increasingly strategic role in the region.
Today there are five times as many investment
promotion agencies in the world as 20 years
ago. That means there are more players on
the market, but also greater focus on being
proactive and professional, while delivering
higher quality services.
5
Together, we begin a new chapter in Greater
Montréal’s development, with ambition,
audacity and ardour.

In 2013, MI and its partners met with

is based on 28 partnership agreements
with community economic development
corporations (CDE), the City of Montréal,
Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development
Canada, and Investissement Québec (IQ).
An effective business model
Montréal International is increasingly
positioning itself as a catalyst to facilitate access
to strategic resources: almost all projects to
set up or expand operations in 2013 involved
government partners, and close to 60%
qualified for financial assistance.

INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS:
TARGETED ACTIONS TO SUPPORT A
COMMUNITY THAT IS UNIQUE IN CANADA
In addition to playing an active part in keeping the International
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in Montréal – when it was being
courted by Qatar – Montréal International played a strategic
role in 2013 in the expansion of Airports Council International
(ACI), which represents more than 1,750 airports in 174 countries.
MI also led 63 foreign prospecting missions and organized
36 targeted activities to support the growth of international
organizations already established in Montréal.
2
major successes: maintenance
of ICAO and expansion of ACI
Based in Montréal since it was created by the
United Nations (UN) in 1944, the International
Civil Aviation Organization employs some
500 people and generates an estimated $120 M
in economic spinoffs each year. After Qatar
presented a relocation offer in the spring of
2013, the various levels of government – with
support from Montréal International – made
a concerted effort to keep this leading civil
aviation organization in Québec. A global
forum for developing policies and standards
regulating civil aviation in 191 countries,
ICAO makes a significant contribution to
Montréal’s international profile and helps
attract other international organizations.
Airports Council International, another
civil aviation organization – which Montréal
International had previously supported when
it relocated from Geneva to Montréal in 2010
– announced it was expanding its Airport
Excellence (APEX) program. Supported and
facilitated by MI, this project will result in
the creation of nine new jobs and generate
economic spinoffs of $1.7 M a year.
63
prospecting missions
Throughout the year, Montréal International
focused on promoting Greater Montréal’s
distinct advantages to 63 strategic international
organizations in high-potential sectors,
including:
•A
viation and aerospace;
•E

support activities
Montréal International provided international

support for regular activities as well as special
projects. MI also carried out 36 support
activities in 2013, demonstrating its willingness
to support organizations not only in relocating
to Montréal, but also to help them develop
and grow.
Training and networking activities
The top attractiveness factor for international
organizations is the potential for collaboration
among organizations in the same sector.
Montréal International thus held a number
of events throughout the year to strengthen ties
among international organizations in Montréal,
expand their networks and multiply strategic
synergies. These events included:
• the 4th Montréal forum for international
organizations, held in conjunction
with Tourisme Montréal with the goal
of improving professional practices;
“Montréal International has a passionate team!
Its people work hard to support the international
organizations operating in Montréal and to convince
others to set up here.”
• an information and familiarization
session organized with the Mission of
Canada to help members of ICAO delegations,
employees and their spouses navigate
Montréal’s legal, protocolar, professional,
social, banking and cultural environments;
• a tribute evening for international
organizations, held on November 28, which
drew 130 attendees – the biggest turnout
since this annual event was first held.

Three years after relocating from Geneva to Montréal, Airports

development drivers for this international organization.

TALENT ATTRACTION:
STRATEGIC SUPPORT FOR
GREATER MONTRÉAL BUSINESSES
12 000 candidats
aux«JournéesQuébec» àParis
With the race for strategic talent gaining speed, Montréal International
stepped up its initiatives in 2013 to support Greater Montréal businesses
seeking highly qualified and experienced workers. The results?
Thirty companies took part in three recruiting missions in the US
and Europe, 186 skilled foreign workers were hired and a virtual
community of 3,500 potential candidates was set up on social media.
A pilot project to better
understand, promote and recruit
Montréal International completed a two-year
pilot project thanks to the financial support
of the Conseil emploi métropole to acquire
up-to-date expertise and develop effective tools
for attracting talent. This project focused on
three key areas to:
• carry out two studies on talent attraction;
•p
romote Greater Montréal as a destination
of choice in which to live and work, notably
via social media;
• e ncourage Greater Montréal employers
to take part in foreign recruiting missions.
30
companies took part
in recruiting missions
Québec’s shrinking labour force and the strength
of leading-edge industries in Greater Montréal
mean that several companies have to look to
overseas recruiting each year. In 2013, Montréal
International coordinated the participation of
30 employers of the Greater Montréal region
– 43% more than in 2012 and 87% more than
in 2011 – in three recruiting missions held
in collaboration with Québec’s Ministère de
l’Immigration et des Communautés culturelles.
•M
arch 2013: New York City
and Washington, D.C.
• June 2013: Paris and Brussels
• December 2013: Paris
186
qualified workers hired
The recruiting missions MI took part in during
2013 resulted in 186 skilled and experienced
specialized workers being hired, thereby filling
very specific requirements in the aerospace,
information and communications technologies
(ICT), and life sciences and health technologies
(LSHT) sectors.
3,500
potential candidates mobilized
through social media
Montréal International has set up a social
media-based communication strategy to reach
skilled foreign workers directly and enable
them to discover Greater Montréal as a choice
destination in which to live and work. Some
3,500 people have signed up on Facebook,
Twitter and LinkedIn in less than one year.
This community of potential candidates has an
opportunity to learn more about the Montréal
metropolitan region’s advantages every day.

Pour la Banque Laurentienne, BRP et des dizaines de sociétés québécoises, la pénurie de main-d’œuvre n’a rien de théorique. Leur
nouveau bastion de prédilection pour recruter? La France. Avec 600 postes très pointus à pourvoir, 36 employeurs ont fait le voyage
jusqu’à Paris pour rencontrer des milliers de candidats potentiels le week-end dernier. Incursion dans ce salon de l’emploi 2.0.
MAXIME BERGERON
PARIS
Samedi matin, dans la salle de
conférence anonyme d’un hôtel
parisien. Autour des nombreux kiosques, des hommes
et des femmes tirés à quatre
épingles attendent patiemment
en file. Les noms affichés sont
familiers : Raymond Chabot,
Standard Life, I ndustrielle
Alliance, Groupe Le Massif.
Un peu partout, le fleurdelisé
apparaît bien en évidence.
Les « Journées Québec »,
organisées depuis 2008 dans
la capita le fra nça ise, sont
devenues un incontournable
pour des dizaines d’entreprises
québécoises. C’est ici qu’elles
viennent pour tenter de pourvoir les centaines de postes
pour lesquels elles ne trouvent
plus de candidats qualifiés à la
maison. Et de toute évidence,
la huitième présentation de
l’événement a connu un succès
monstre le week-end dernier.
Plus de 12 000 candidats
eu ropéens se sont inscrits
en vue de décrocher l’un des
60 0 postes offerts pendant
l’événement, et 4000 ont été
convoqués à des entrevues.
« C’est un grand moment dans
la relation franco-québécoise »,
s’est réjoui Michel Robitaille,
délégué général du Québec à
Paris, rencontré à cette foire de
l’emploi nouveau genre.
Les postes disponibles se
concentrent surtout dans les
technologies de l’information
(TI), l’aéronautique, la finance
et la métallurgie, des secteurs
de pointe où les pénuries sont
criantes au Québec. Pour limiter au maximum les pertes de
temps, les organisateurs du
salon ont fait un travail d’arrimage m i nutieu x entre les
emplois offerts et les candidats
potentiels.
L’e x e r c i c e e s t p r e s q u e
« chirurgical », souligne Louis
A rseneault, vice-président,
Attraction de talents, de l’organisme Montréal International,
qui représentait 16 entreprises
à Paris. « Le succès de ces
opérations repose essentiellement sur la capacité d’arrimer
les exigences très pointues
des employeu rs québécois
avec les compétences de ces
employés-là. »
Un marché « très serré »
Le groupe de conseil en
informatique Fujitsu, en plein
boom au Québec, en était à
sa huitième participation aux
« Journées Québec ». La formule fonctionne à merveille
pour l’entreprise. « En tout
et partout, on a fait une centaine de recrutements depuis
2 0 0 8 », a sou l ig né A n n ie
Bélisle, vice-présidente des
ressou rces hu ma i nes , qu i
rencontrait des candidats à la
chaîne à son petit kiosque.
M me Bélisle et sa collègue
ont fait une série de « premières entrevues » pendant
le salon. Tout de suite après,
une équipe située à Québec a
réalisé des « entrevues techniques » par vidéoconférence
avec les candidats les plus
intéressa nts. L’objectif est
limpide : recruter autant d’employés que possible, et le plus
vite possible.
Le scénario se répète chez
Helix, un groupe de Montréal
à la recherche de travailleurs
spécialisés en développement
de logiciels. La PME a réussi
à embaucher cinq candidats à
chacune de ses deux dernières
participations aux « Journées
Québec », et elle espérait en
recruter encore autant cette
fois-ci.
« O n a i mera it t rouver à
Montréal, mais c’est un marché
qui est très serré, a souligné
Ovidiu Schiopu, président de
la petite boîte de 33 employés.
Les travailleurs qu’on a embauchés grâce aux journées précédentes s’intègrent très bien,
et ils amènent chacun une
dimension intéressante avec
leurs backgrounds différents. »
CCH (Wolters Kluwer) espérait aussi trouver la perle rare.
La firme de Sherbrooke spécialisée dans les logiciels comptables a quatre postes à pourvoir
en TI. Elle a reçu 77 candidatures, et 24 Européens ont été
convoqués en entrevue.
« Ce sont des ex pertises
très pointues, qui sont presque impossibles à trouver au
Québec, a commenté Chantal
Lacroix, directrice technologie. On a un chasseur de têtes
qui ratisse sur nos postes,
jusqu’à Toronto, et on n’est pas
capables de trouver. »
Les « Journées Québec »,
qu i se tien nent deu x fois
l’an, se déroulent pendant
deux jours à Paris, puis dans
une autre ville pour la dernière journée (dans ce cas-ci,
Bruxelles). La prochaine, à la
fin de novembre, concentrera
toutes les rencontres à Paris.
En plus de cet événement
qui a lieu deux fois par année,
le Bureau d’immigration du
Québec à Paris tient chaque
semaine des séances d’information par internet et dans
diverses salles parisiennes.
Celles-ci attirent entre 60 et
200 personnes, selon les lieux.
« On remplit les salles », a dit
avec le sourire Line Gagné,
directrice du bureau.
“The organizers of the fair
did a great work matching
the jobs on offer with
potential candidates.”

PROMOTING GREATER MONTRÉAL’S ECONOMY
MORE VISIBILITY ON THE WEB
AND SOCIAL MEDIA
Montréal International leveraged new technologies and social
media throughout 2013 to promote the prospecting of foreign
investment, international organizations and strategic workers.
This strategy generated increased visibility for Greater Montréal,
beginning with a complete overhaul of MI’s web site, the creation
of an economic blog, production of video capsules and deployment
of targeted promotional activities. MI also presented a number
of recommendations at public consultations on how to make
the metropolitan region more attractive and more competitive
on the global stage.

A brand-new mobile-friendly version of MI’s web site
was developed and went live in 2013. Designed as an interactive
showcase for Greater Montréal’s economy, the new MI site
highlights Québec metropolis’ key success factors and features
testimonials from corporate CEOs, leaders of international
organizations and strategic workers who have settled
in the region. The site had 115,000 unique visitors
and a total of 400,000 page views in 2013.
promotional capsules
You can’t have social media without a video component.
Montréal International produced, scripted and filmed 21 video
capsules to promote Greater Montréal and its multiple assets.
• N
ine of these capsules are aimed at businesses
and international organizations;
• Twelve of them are aimed at international strategic workers.
4
promotional missions
Munich, New York City, San Francisco
and Los Angeles
Alongside shows by Cirque du Soleil, Montréal International
organized promotional missions with key partners to target
potential investors and site locators. In the U.S., these location
advisors are involved in 40% of projects involving 100 jobs
or more.
Montréal International has also implemented a social media
strategy which includes an economic blog (Greater Montréal:
Leading Business), managed Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn
accounts, as well as the design and distribution of promotional
graphics targeting international strategic workers.
Familiarization tour in Greater Montréal
In addition to these missions, Montréal International and its
partners such as Investissement Québec hosted a number of these
US consultants to enable them to discover Greater Montréal,
its expertise and its numerous advantages.
52
Reference documents
To support its team as it works with high-priority prospecting
targets, Montréal International compiled and analyzed economic
data which is featured in Greater Montréal: The power to help
you succeed—considered a true reference tool. MI also produced
a comprehensive profile of Greater Montréal’s Life Sciences
and Health Technologies industry, which won an award from
the International Economic Development Council, and a map
showing the sector’s main players in the region.
High-profile business events
In 2013, Montréal International continued promoting Greater
Montréal’s strengths at major international business events such
as the BIO International Convention (Life Sciences and Health
Technologies), the MIPIM international show for real estate
professionals, the International Air Show at Paris-Le Bourget,
the SIAL food exhibition and the Montréal International
Game Summit (video games).
Targeted, high-visibility press events
Montréal International organized some 30 proactive press events
to highlight the successes of Greater Montréal and the businesses
and international organizations that received support to set up
or expand operations in the region. Montréal International
also implemented a visibility plan following the appointment of
Ms. Dominique Anglade as President and Chief Executive Officer
of the organization. The spin-offs included a cover-page headline
in Les Affaires business magazine—“International Ambition”.
