Alex Fraser

CTO and Cofounder, Ph.D.

Born in Pohénégamook, Québec, Alex received his PhD in Laser Processing from the Centre for Optics, Photonics and Lasers (COPL) at Laval University. With numerous publications and presentations at international conferences, Alex is recognized as a reference in industrial laser processing.

Alex got the idea to start Laserax when he met a project manager who shared his company’s problems with manufacturing processes that were inefficient, time consuming, and costly. Alex recognized the enormous potential of laser technology to improve industrial processes. He reached out to Xavier, with whom he had previously worked and studied, and convinced him to cofound Laserax.

As Laserax grew, Alex focused on the company’s technological development. Since 2010, he’s been the company’s Chief Technology Officer, overseeing the company’s future technological ventures. He has worked on several technological innovations that have been patented by Laserax, including laser processes and engineered solutions.

Alex is known for his resourcefulness and ability to get people on board with his vision. He has the dedication to make his vision a reality and can tackle challenges that no one else can. Clients love working with him because he brings custom and innovative solutions.

In his spare time, Alex enjoys the outdoors, ice canoeing, moose hunting, and martial arts (judo).
