Frédéric Perron leads internet service provider Cogeco during time of potential growth

Frédéric Perron (BCom’97) was serving as the Chief Commercial Officer for Vodafone Poland when he was asked to return to Canada to become the new president and CEO of Cogeco, an internet service provider. Although Cogeco’s corporate offices are in Montreal, Perron’s position is based in Burlington, Ontario. That puts him closer to the company’s US customers, some of which are in nearby Ohio. Americans make up about half of Cogeco’s business, and as the US government makes major investments in connectivity, there remains room for growth in the United States. Perron discussed these prospects in an interview with LaPresse.
