Meet Our Convention Chair for CIM CONNECT 2025
Meet Dany Bélanger: Driving the Future of Mining and Innovation at CIM CONNECT 2025
We are thrilled to introduce Dany Bélanger as the Convention Chair for CIM CONNECT 2025, taking place in Montréal from May 4-7, 2025. With over a decade of experience in the Mining and Construction industries, Bélanger brings an unmatched blend of strategic insight, leadership, and innovation to the organizing committee.
As the Convention Chair for CIM CONNECT, Bélanger plays a pivotal role in guiding the conference, ensuring that its theme, “Minerals, Innovation, and the Energy Transition,” reflects the evolving landscape of the mining industry. His expertise in fleet operations, asset risk management, and organizational change management positions him as a key figure in advancing the conversation on circularity, sustainability, and technological advancement in the mining sector.
Throughout his career, Bélanger has earned a reputation as a champion of transformation initiatives. His pragmatic, results-driven approach has allowed him to successfully navigate complex environments and help organizations thrive, even through challenging times. At CONNECT, attendees will benefit from Bélanger’s forward-thinking perspective on how innovation and sustainability are reshaping the mining industry. With an eye on the future, Bélanger will focus on bringing together industry leaders to discuss new approaches to mining and the role of minerals in the global energy transition
The theme for CONNECT places a heavy emphasis on circularity, the recovery and reuse of materials from sources like tailings, secondary products, and already-extracted minerals. This approach encourages the mining industry to rethink traditional processes and consider the entire lifecycle of minerals, which aligns with global calls for more sustainable practices.
Dany Bélanger is dedicated to driving these conversations at CIM CONNECT 2025, where attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about emerging technologies, sustainable practices, and strategies to support the shift toward a circular economy in the mining sector.
