#VTJTalks: The Year in Vancouver Tech — So Far

Presented in partnership with Global Public Affairs

We're halfway through 2025 — so what’s the story so far in Vancouver tech?

Join Vancouver Tech Journal and Global Public Affairs for a dynamic evening of insights, storytelling, and real talk as we unpack the most important developments of the year to date. From major funding rounds and standout acquisitions to surprising pivots and rising stars, we’re spotlighting the news, people, and forces driving Vancouver’s tech ecosystem forward.

Expect candid perspectives from founders, funders, operators, and ecosystem builders as they reflect on:

  • What’s been working (and what hasn’t) so far this year

  • How global shifts in AI, capital, and talent are landing locally

  • What they’re excited (or concerned) about for Q3 and Q4

  • Who and what to watch next in Vancouver tech

Whether you're an early-stage founder, investor, tech employee, policymaker, or community supporter, this #VTJTalks is for you. Come for the insights — stay for the networking, the community, and the chance to reconnect with the people building the future of tech in BC.

📅 Date: July 23
📍 Location: Northeastern University Vancouver
