About this event

With a surge in B.C. companies reaching unicorn status over the past year, Innovate BC partnered with the Vancouver Tech Journal to complete a study on B.C. companies reaching $1B valuation (through private investment, acquisition, or initial public offering).  

 Join us for a panel discussion presented by KPMG to hear from these unicorn businesses. These seasoned entrepreneurs will share insights on the trajectory of their businesses – from their successes and challenges to lessons learned and more.
