 Fawn Annan passed away at the end of May. Annan was CEO of IT World Canada, a position she held since 2010 when she became a co-owner of the brand.

            She led IT World Canada during its transformation into a fully digital publication, one of the first publications to do so. Prior to ITWC she started the first Unix trade show in Canada and continued to launch successful events, such as Showcase Ontario, an event celebrating technology in the province. She developed the Lac Carling Congress, which was for many years the premier event for government and technology.

            She was also active with several industry and non-profit associations, advised educational bodies, served on many boards, and was a mentor to many in the IT industry, media, and the business world in general.
