Canadian Chapters
Canada Bridge is the most unique chapter in the country! We bring together entrepreneurs from across Canada who want to learn, grow, and have once-in-a-lifetime experiences over and above what their local chapter provides. We host quarterly in-person meetings as well as customizable learning opportunities throughout the year. Our Forums are created on the basis of shared interests and allow same-industry business owners to make valuable connections. Every member of our chapter is engaged and devoted to giving back and elevating the EO experience.

Chapter President
Jean-François Rousseau
Jean-François Rousseau is a serial entrepreneur, technologist, and innovation leader who believes that great ideas thrive when technology meets human-centered design. As President of EO Canada Bridge, Jean-François connects ambitious entrepreneurs from across the country who seek extraordinary learning experiences and meaningful peer connections beyond their local chapters—championing a vision of entrepreneurship as continuous growth through shared experiences and creating once-in-a-lifetime opportunities that help Canadian entrepreneurs think bigger, connect globally, and elevate their businesses and themselves.
Since founding Libéo in 1996 at just 16 years old, Jean-François has been at the forefront of Quebec’s digital transformation. What started in a family basement with $32 grew into one of Quebec’s most respected digital agencies, now employing over 75 professionals and earning nine OCTAS awards—the “Oscars” of Quebec’s technology sector.
Today, Jean-François leads Technologies Konek as CEO, revolutionizing the hospitality industry with its “Smart Hotel as a Service” platform. Konek delivers integrated WiFi, IPTV, and interactive guest experiences to hotels across Canada, giving hoteliers control over their technology while transforming how guests connect during their stay.
He is a passionate advocate for open-source technologies and believes innovation is an ecosystem that must balance all its components to prosper.
