Icentia is proud to announce it has won a Mercure award in the “Successful business strategy” category, presented by the Quebec Chartered Professional Accountants Order. This prize is designed to reward a strategy built to maximize the business potential of a company.
Active in Canada and the United Kingdom, Icentia provides health institutions and patients with its CardioSTAT test, a new kind of miniaturized, ambulatory electrocardiogram that can detect heart rate disorders. Looking to increase the accessibility of its test, the company has built a distribution network that consists of service points throughout the whole of Quebec. This network, which now includes over 100 pharmacies and health clinics, offers high quality tests. Such access was only previously possible in highly specialized hospitals located in large urban areas.
“Winning an award in the most prestigious business contest in Quebec is a source of great pride for our entire team. We have been working passionately and devotedly for almost ten years to offer high quality tests to as many patients as possible. We are delighted to see our initiatives recognized today,” Pierre Paquet, CEO of Icentia, said.
The Icentia team congratulates all the prizewinners and finalists of the Mercuriades 2021 contest. The full list of prizewinners is available at https://mercuriades.ca/les-laureats-2021/.
