The BC Pavilion is a curated area of the Web Summit Vancouver exhibit floor that seeks to represent the connection between tech, the people of B.C., and nature through its visuals, presentations and activities. The booth will provide an opportunity for those visiting the conference from outside of B.C. to experience aspects of the province’s natural environment, while learning about and interacting with its innovative technologies.

The BC Pavilion has been coordinated by the Naturally Innovative Alliance, consisting of the Government of British Columbia; the Government of Canada. Invest Vancouver; Destination Vancouver; and InnovateBC. There will be keynotes, panels, “fireside chats”, pitch competitions, and showcase over 70 startups.

Programming has been planned in collaboration with Digi BC, Life Sciences BC, Quantum Algorithms Institute, and AInBC. For a complete list of speakers and companies, please check back soon.
