Jenelle Sobey Wins National WCT Emerging Leader of the Year Award


Managing Partner of Norex and Digital Nova Scotia Member, Jenelle Sobey has been recognized by Women in Communications and Technology (WCT) for her efforts in advancing, and inspiring women across Canada in communications, media, and technology.
Joining ten Canadian female leaders from companies such as Microsoft, IBM Canada, Bell Media and CBC, Jenelle will be representing Atlantic Canada at the WCT Annual Awards Gala on April 26th in Ottawa.
