One day in Victoria. Two hundred founders, investors and operators, by application and invitation.
Vancouver Island Business is focused on supporting local Vision, Capital, and People.
One day, four themes, 200 interesting people. Pushing the limits of AI personalization to raise the bar for what an event can be.
The island's most up-to-date view of its dealflow, providers, and capital. It stays private, and introductions are made only on an exact fit.
Everyone answers the same short set of questions. That is what makes the rest possible.
Live music, good food, and a tailored experience.
Themed rooms run in parallel. Some as small as 10 people. Some require strategy...
Attendees, partners, and volunteers get professional profile setup to ensure post-event opportunity routing.
Stay tuned as we roll out our topics, speakers, and activations.
Straight cash, and it could be any eligible attendee. Everyone who attends decides the five that get to compete.
Sixteen logos, and far more than sixteen names behind the day. These are the partners, guests and community organizations already committed. Behind them sit the people who make this work.
