FIND OUT HOW WE DID IT

Thanks to your recommendations and project management, our digital presence is rooted in a strong foundation. Adviso made a significant contribution to the development of the project. It was a long road, but the end result is a product we are extremely proud of.

REDESIGN OF THE PME MTL NETWORK’S SITE

The PME MTL network was born of the reorganization of the model for local economic development in the Montreal area. The 18 CLD/CDECs previously responsible for local economic development were replaced by six organizations which have come together to form the PME MTL network. Given the circumstances, the network needed to revisit its digital ecosystem to ensure that it would have a single site and web presence, in order to better meet users’ needs. Adviso supported PME MTL throughout the preparation for the redesign project, including strategic planning, site design, the selection of production partners (design and development), and UX support, right up to the time the site was delivered.
