VICE PRESIDENT, INNOVATION

Jean-François Lavigne is a technology and innovation leader with more than 20 years of experience in the development of electric-vehicle technologies for demanding transportation and industrial applications.

He spent more than 12 years leading electronic-packaging engineering at Dana TM4, a joint venture between Dana Incorporated and Hydro-Québec.
