Marketing Strategy Intern

WestGrid is looking for ways to diversify its sources of revenue and funding. WestGrid is at a strategic junction and has taken the decision to expand its offerings and services to the industry in addition to focusing on educational institutions. Given the limited resources and capacity that WestGrid has, additional resources are needed to help drive its business strategy and move in the right direction to provide value to our community. An intern can offer a great help in driving activity to help develop our business, marketing and funding strategies.
WestGrid will need intern students to help develop a solid business strategy, perform market research and analyze its target market and segments to pivot its operations and build an innovation platform that includes advanced and high performance computing facility . We also need to develop a marketing strategy, an operation plan and resources and staffing plan to move forward. Given this project will be funded by many funding partners, WestGrid needs to develop a funding plan.

SSE Boucherat

La raison d’être de ce projet est de mettre au point un outil d’aide à la décision pour les décideurs politiques en matière de sécurité alimentaire. Pour cela, une approche multidisciplinaire et transversale est cruciale. En effet, les systèmes alimentaires se composent de multiples acteurs, ayant des expertises, des contraintes et des capacités variables dans le temps et l’espace, formant un tissu complexe. Ma formation multidisciplinaire en environnement, abordant les aspects agronomiques, politiques, environnementaux et juridiques constitue une base solide pour apporter un regard complet et approfondi sur ce sujet. De plus, ma volonté d’intégrer toutes ces composantes dans une approche systémique correspond parfaitement aux enjeux et aux attentes du stage, qui tout en me donnant le temps et les moyens de mobiliser mes connaissances me permettra de développer mon expertise dans ce domaine particulier de la sécurité alimentaire.

Business Strategy Internship

Business Analyst at Randoli Inc.

The overall goal of transitioning from a consulting delivery model to a product-based company will be accomplished by first building a business plan that contains a detailed roadmap for Randoli’s new product, including competitive analysis, pricing strategy, marketing strategy, and financial models.
The first objective revolves around conducting effective research to complete competitive market analysis. I will achieve this by researching the industry’s main competitors’ websites, using online market analysis tools, market reports, and high-quality market research resources available for Queen’s University students. For instance, IBISWorld covers Canadian, U.S. and global research reports from different industries including the technology enterprise and business software sector. These reports can contribute with key statistics and information on the market characteristics, competitive landscape, current and forecasted financial performance, among other useful market insights.
The second objective is to build financial models in order to understand Randoli’s cashflow, revenue and cost models, and R&D expenditures to support the engineering efforts. The resulting financial model will help the company as a decision-making tool to estimate the overall costs. My competencies are aligned to the financial needs of the project, in my experience in the investment banking industry as a financial analyst, I built several firm valuations TOBECONT’.

Bunker de la science – Stage SSE FSA UL

Le Bunker de la Science est une entreprise innovante dans le secteur de l’éducation scientifique. En 3 ans, nous avons construit un lieu unique en son genre et réputé pour la qualité de ses jeux immersifs et éducatifs. L’entreprise a des visées de croissance à l’extérieur de la région de Québec. La pandémie a forcé la fermeture de nos installations pour une durée indéterminée. En cherchant une façon de transposer nos jeux sur le web, l’équipe a développé une expertise dans la fabrication de jeux en immersion virtuelle photographique à 360 degrés. Le stagiaire devra aider l’entreprise à élaborer une stratégie qui permettra d’utiliser cette nouvelle expertise afin de démocratiser la culture scientifique partout dans le monde.

Multi-modal learning of human pose representation for conditional motion synthesis

The goal of the project is to generate realistic human movement in 3D animations. This is important to make movement animations in games and movies appear real. Typically, creating high quality animations is a resource and time consuming process that requires the participation of human actors in motion capture sessions. In this work, we present a data-driven approach that aims to generate novel animations based on a library of past motion capture recordings that can make generating high quality animations low cost and fast by eliminating the need to record human actors. Our proposed method leverages state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms and Unity’s high-quality motion capture data to generate 3D human movement.
