808 TECH & Innovation Investment Forum

In the next 15 years “breakthroughs will be driven by innovation in technology ... and by innovations that help deliver those things to more people. ” - Bill & Melinda Gates Annual Letter

From providing a plethora of entertainment and real-time communication to far corners of the world, to tackling many of humanity’s grand challenges, including energy, education, water, food, and health, the exponential growth of technology in the last few decades is transforming the world right in front of our eyes.

Investing in new technology and innovation contributes to our common future across nations and cultures, and the rewards of the endeavour can also be quite lucrative. Companies that execute well can grow from zero to valuation of billions in a just few short years, such as Airbnb ($25.5 billion) or Uber ($62.5 billion).

Join us on Thursday, April 28 at the RISE, 1055 West Hastings in downtown Vancouver, to hear from four companies, from BC, Ontario and Washington, that are pushing the boundaries, disturbing the peace, while offering competitive advantages and high growth potential for their investors.
