Sophie Dumoulin, CFA

Director Cleantech, Export Development Canada

Export financing sounds like paperwork until you realize it’s often the difference between a cleantech company scaling globally or stalling at home. Sophie has helped Export Development Canada (EDC) turn insurance, guarantees and working capital into practical tools for companies facing long sales cycles and capital-intensive projects. Under her push, EDC delivered more than $12 billion in trade support and insurance to over 440 cleantech businesses in a single year, blowing past its 2025 target two years ahead of schedule. Companies like Iogen and Sollum Technologies, recognized as EDC Cleantech Export Stars, are among the beneficiaries. Sophie’s work helps Canadian cleantech firms go from local pitch deck to global paycheque.
