A Sudbury woman, who is one of the few people in Canada qualified to advise on digitizing mining businesses, said only a small percentage of Canadian businesses are using their digital technology properly.

Néha Singh, the CEO of PACE Global, was a guest speaker in Toronto at the Northern Ontario Mining Showcase earlier this month. The event is part of the annual convention of the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada.

Singh said the Sudbury-based PACE Global is one of the few digital adoption firms that works with the mining sector.
