Quebecor Inc. is a Canadian diversified media and telecommunications company serving Quebec based in Montreal. It was spelled Quebecor in both English and French until May 2012, when shareholders voted to add the acute accent, Québecor, in French only.

The company was founded in 1965 by Pierre Péladeau and remains run by his family. Quebecor Inc. owns Quebecor Media and formerly owned the printing company Quebecor World.

In 2011, Quebecor launched TVA Sports, a French-language sports television network.

The same year, it bought the management and naming rights of the Videotron Centre, an indoor arena in Quebec City that opened in 2015.

In 2014, the company purchased the Quebec Remparts of the QMJHL.

In 2015, Quebecor submitted an application for an National Hockey League expansion franchise in Quebec City. The application has since passed two phases of league scrutiny, with a final decision expected in early 2016. A year later, the league "deferred" the bid.

Corporate governance

Former Prime Minister of Canada Brian Mulroney served as chair of the board before his death in February 2024.

Current members of the board of directors of Quebecor Inc. are: Françoise Bertrand, Jean La Couture, Sylvie Lalande, Pierre Laurin, A. Michel Lavigne, Geneviève Marcon, and Normand Provost.
