INVITATION | 2SLGBTQAI+ Event with Chris Bergeron

In celebration of Pride month, the 2SLGBTQAI+  Network at  Innovation, Science and Economic Development (ISED) is pleased to invite you to a virtual discussion with Chris Bergeron, Speaker, Trans Author and Vice President of Brand Content at Cossette.

For almost 40 years, Chris Bergeron has lived the life of a heterosexual man. From very early in her career, she had great professional success: after having been a collaborator for major media such as La Presse and Radio-Canada, Chris directed for the newspaper VOIR for five years, which was the largest network of weekly cultural magazines in Quebec at the time. She then made the leap to the advertising world where she held the position of creative director for major agencies.

Then, she came out and started living true life as a trans woman. Suddenly being propelled into the reality of a visible sexual minority has profoundly transformed her perception of the world. In Quebec and internationally, Chris advocates for diversity, inclusion and the rights of trans people by sharing her story to the public.
