R2WSV-All-Events_Roadmap 2026_official

Innovate BC is proud to continue its sector development initiative helping B.C. startups maximize their Web Summit Vancouver experience and capitalize on its potential to support their growth. This initiative is called the ‘Road to Web Summit Vancouver, Powered by Innovate BC' (R2WSV). 

R2WSV is aimed at leveraging Web Summit Vancouver as a platform to attract investors, acquire customers, and drive growth for B.C. companies. As a part of the R2WSV, Innovate BC works alongside partners across the ecosystem to develop and implement a comprehensive suite of programming and events that enable B.C. companies to capitalize on the opportunities available at the conference. We aim to engage with partners that can also maximize participation from founders across British Columbia’s various sectors, regions, and diverse communities (including Indigenous, women, newcomers and people of colour).
