The Vancouver BIA Partnership is excited to host the Vancouver Economic Summit, designed to highlight the critical issues facing small businesses within the context of urban development and economic planning.
As we navigate these challenging times, it is increasingly important to bridge the gap between local businesses and city planning authorities.
This event aims to foster dialogue, identify opportunities, and devise strategies that support and sustain the vital ecosystem of small businesses.
Within the framework of four panel sessions, industry leaders and experts will participate in timely and vital discussion about economic development to help businesses and the city thrive together.
Networking breaks before and after the panel discussions, will enable participants to connect, exchange ideas, and foster valuable collaborations.
