CREATORS, DOERS & INNOVATORS WHO ARE SHAPING THE WORLD
Frontier technologies are thriving in Vancouver. We’ve got the second largest VR/AR/Metaverse industry globally, internationally recognized AI and cleantech industries, and a world-leading cluster of film, television, gaming, VFX and animation firms including Disney, Microsoft, Electronic Arts (EA), Sony Pictures, and Imageworks.
​
We are home to pioneers in robotics, quantum computing, and biotech with the global antibody leader Abcellera, and in blockchain technologies with the homegrown unicorns Layerzero and Dapper Labs. We are producing exponentially more frontier tech ‘unicorns’ (companies with billion dollar valuations) every year.
March 12 at 12:00pm - Swan Dive (615 Red River Street)
