Spotlight on women in heritage at Rendez-Vous Maestria

EVOQ took to the stage at Rendez-vous Maestria 2025! This annual event showcases expertise and know-how in heritage and architecture.

Our colleagues Marianne Leroux, architect, and Mélissa Mars, heritage specialist, along with Edyta Rano, artisan, and Muriel Bassil, general contractor, were part of a panel discussion on the growing recognition of women in the field. Through exchange and sharing of experiences, these women highlighted their roles in the construction and heritage industries, including their challenges and achievements, and discussed concepts of mentoring, mutual support, visibility, and appreciation.

EVOQ holds equity and collegiality at the heart of its values, and is proud that women professionals form the majority of its heritage team. Thank you Marianne and Mélissa for representing us at this important event!
