How time flies when you\u2019re having fun!  From a startup in 1993 to a well-established company today, I\u2019ve had the pleasure of being there for the ups and the downs, and all the curves along the way.   <\/span><\/p>\n

I had no clue back then what would become of Dovico or where it would bring us, but I\u2019m happy to say that it\u2019s a place where I feel like home mostly because of my co-workers and our CEO, Yves who\u2019s instilled a wonderful culture here.  Yves and I believe that empowering people promotes growth and effectiveness of our business.  It drives them to achieve their personal best and echoes in a positive work environment and enhanced client relationship. What I love the best is the growth I see arou<\/i>nd me when people are empowered<\/i> <\/i>he once said.   <\/span><\/p>\n

But really, where would we be without our wonderful clients.  We\u2019ve been fortunate to work with some outstanding and world-class organizations over the years and appreciate each and every one of our clients, some of whom have been with us since the beginning, imagine that!  We’ve become friends with many of them and treasure the partnerships that have developed.   <\/span><\/p>\n

And finally, but not the least, we\u2019ve built strong business relationships with businesses and government agencies in the Atlantic region which has allowed us to become a solid player in the IT industry as well as sowing the seeds for the possible future expansion and commercialization of other similar businesses. <\/span><\/p>\n

So, I would like for time to stand still<\/i> for a moment and just say a great big THANK YOU<\/i><\/b> for being there.  Without you, where would we be? <\/span><\/p>\n
