MONTREAL – Bell has named Tom Little as its new president of Bell Business Markets replacing Stéphane Boisvert who has parted ways with the company, while Martine Turcotte takes on the new role of Vice Chair, Québec. Bell said Monday that the new appointments are effective immediately.
After joining Bell in 1988 as legal counsel, Turcotte held increasingly senior corporate positions in the company before being appointed chief legal officer in 1999 and then chief legal and regulatory officer in 2008. In her new role, Turcotte is responsible for all of the company’s business, government, community investment and other corporate relationships across Québec.
Little has more than 25 years of executive leadership experience in technology, venture capital and finance organizations and a proven track record in building and operating successful Canadian technology companies, most recently as president of Bell Wholesale. Prior to that, he served as CEO of VisualSonics, a global life sciences research leader, and earlier developed Dicomit Dicom Information Technologies into an internationally renowned provider of software and hardware products to healthcare system manufacturers.
Both executives will report directly to George Cope, president and CEO of Bell Canada and BCE Inc.
