Expanding beyond Quebec

commercialization and tap into new markets ," explained Dr. Yanick Beaulieu, president and CEO of IIT,
cardiologist and critical care physician at Hôpital du Sacré-Coeur de Montréal. "It also highlights the efforts of
each and every member of our team, which will also be expanding."
Since its launch in 2014, several medical organizations and hundreds of health professionals across Quebec have
integrated Reacts in their daily activities. Moreover, this platform has also been used as part of several pilot
projects for training and education. Development projects are currently underway in Ontario, France, the United
States and China.
A low-cost, interactive experience called "hyperpresence"
Through its many functions, Reacts makes remote collaboration, education and supervision easier, while helping
users share information and knowledge in a simple, secure, flexible and useful manner. Reacts provides video
conferencing, secure messaging, file sharing and transfer, as well as application and screen sharing, while
integrating innovative tools, such as augmented reality and real-time image overlay.
IIT's mission consists in enabling users to communicate and collaborate through an integrated platform, thereby
experiencing and creating rich virtual communications. This is revamped telepresence at its very best. This is
"hyperpresence".
In the healthcare sector, Reacts helps improve access to care, reduce costs, make services more efficient, and
improve satisfaction among patients and healthcare professionals. Integrating this platform at the healthcare
organization level is much more cost effective than installing conventional systems. Users subscribe to the Reacts
platform through an annual licence starting at $84 (software as a service).
