ABOUT THIS EVENT

BIPOC Foundation presents the Building Bridges event in Vancouver, BC, hosted by Vancouver Community College. The exciting event features a keynote speaker and panel discussion for authentic conversations about unlocking pathways for Western Canadian business ecosystems and the future of BIPOC-led start-ups. The central theme of the event this year is Networking Across Cultures for Business Success.

The gathering will feature a panel of business and racial equity leaders to share their perspectives on the topic, and what they are seeing in industry, and attendees will have the opportunity to learn from and connect with thought leaders and innovators at every level.

BIPOC Foundation aims to strengthen the entrepreneurship ecosystem for BIPOC entrepreneurs and business owners throughout Western Canada. BIPOC Foundation is in partnership with the Government of Canada to deliver the Black Entrepreneurship Program to create significant entrepreneurship opportunities for diverse communities. In our coming 3rd year of operations, our programs are inclusive and accessible to all community members!

This event connects you to the people, trends and topics that matter most. If you own a business or have a business idea, then come and network with Decision-makers and Business leaders shaping our local and provincial economy to get insight into initiatives that affect business and growth in Vancouver and Canada.
