GATINEAU, Quebec, July 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NordiaSoft, leader in embedded software development environments, announced today the appointment of Claude Belisle as its Chief Executive Officer effective immediately.

"He will bring the wisdom NordiaSoft needs to foster its expansion into new markets."

The opportunity ahead for NordiaSoft is vast and I am eager to lead this excellent team to new heights."

"Having worked with Claude for many years, I know he will bring NordiaSoft to new markets," said Juan Pablo Zamora Zapata, Co-Founder and Director of Business Development.
