“The entertainment industry once evolved over years of change andinnovation, but it now moves at a much faster pace that threatens toleave current products and vendors behind,” says LaBerge. “Byunderstanding the forces driving this change — and the rise of 3D, inparticular — today’s businesses can get a clearer vision of where theindustry is headed and the role they can play in it. I look forward tocontributing further to this discussion at the 3D Entertainment Summit.”

A founder of SENSIO, LaBerge has worked for Mouvement Desjardins, thelargest association of credit unions in North America, and served asexecutive vice president of SAJE, a Montreal-based non-profit incubationgroup.
