nition from Quebec’s Immigration Minister
for how well it has integrated immigrants as
employees. This is due in large part to the fact
that there was not enough experts in the prov-
ince in Oracle and Java solutions technologies
and PSA systems, this forced Momentum to
look outside of Canada. The company proudly
has as many as 20 nationalities of employees,
and has predominately hired experienced peo-
ple from France, Belgium and Brazil. Another
reason that they had to look beyond the bor-
ders of Quebec at least, is that they cannot
hire employees from their clients whom they
service with the very expertise in technology
solutions that they would be trying to recruit to
work for Momentum. Their competition in this
regard has come from very big contributors like
CGI and Futjisu and IBM.
“We invest in a lot of skilled education. We
have to specialize our employees. Expertise is
big for us, and we have had our experts and
clients alike say that they like that and that is
really what has distinguished us from the com-
petition from the very beginning.”
Momentum’s goal is to take that experience
to a global level. Next year the company has
plans to set up an office in Boston, and other
parts of Canada.
“The recent recognition has helped to estab-
lish us as a company on a worldwide level, and
our expertise is leading the way,” said Ganache.
