Appointment of Étienne Lavoie-Gagnon as Managing Director
Appointment Notice
Fondaction Asset Management and Priori-T Capital are pleased to announce the appointment of Étienne Lavoie-Gagnon as Managing Director of the Inlandsis Fund. With 25 years of experience in investment and sustainability within the energy and infrastructure sectors, Étienne has a proven track record of creating impactful financial solutions in both Canadian and international markets.
In his new role, he will play a key role in advancing the growth of Inlandsis Fund, which has been active in both voluntary and regulated carbon markets since 2017, providing vital financing to support decarbonization efforts across North America.
Étienne believes that sustainable finance is no longer an option—it’s the new standard. He sees the carbon market as a powerful tool for funding corporate decarbonization projects while positioning businesses for long-term success in the low-carbon economy.
Before joining Inlandsis, Étienne was a partner at EY, where he developed forward-thinking financial solutions to drive the clean energy transition. He also served as Vice President, Asset Management and Investment Strategy at SNC-Lavalin (now AtkinsRéalis), overseeing an investment portfolio of over $4 billion in the energy and infrastructure sectors. In this role, he led major projects in Québec and New Brunswick, including the Maison symphonique de Montréal and the Centre hospitalier Restigouche.
Étienne holds a bachelor’s degree in Bioresource Engineering from McGill University and is a CFA charterholder.
We are confident that Étienne will bring valuable expertise to the Inlandsis Fund and contribute to its continued success.
