XLRator, formerly SRCTec, and the District of Mission are co-hosting the 2nd annual #FVTech Forum as part of the Tech Starts Here initiative.
This event aims to attract industry, government, academia, key influencers and community stakeholders to come together and foster growth and innovation within the local tech sector. The 2018 event will feature how Tech start-ups are changing the landscape of our communities within the Fraser Valley and a strong need for municipalities to start planning a fundamental shift towards Intelligent Communities initiatives by leveraging the knowledge-based economy and workforce. Hear from our local city officials and dignitaries on their plans for infrastructure and programs.
The key attribute of any start-up is the ability to grow – which requires capital. The 2018 Forum will provide a strong emphasis on the need for start-up funding locally and partnerships that promote and fuel tech Entrepreneur needs throughout the life cycle of a venture.
Learn how the local tech sector is evolving and collaborate with other stakeholders within the Fraser Valley to voice your thoughts and help steer the direction of Fraser Valley innovation. Come enjoy a panel discussion, a keynote speaker, a trade show exhibition, and valuable networking opportunities. This event is free to attend with muffins, coffee, and lunch included at no cost.
