BC’s tech sector has been white hot to start this year and the province’s female founders have been leading the charge.
The province’s strategic Investment fund, InBC, has built an impressive executive team that’s led by CEO Jill Earthy, Board Chair Christine Bergeron, and recently-hired CIO, Leah Nguyen. Speaking of investments, money continues to pour into our tech sector and female-founded companies like Paidia, Mintlist, Sanctuary AI have all secured the bag in 2022.
So what’s driving this change? We sat down with Julie Angus (CEO, Open Ocean Robotics), Brianna Blaney (CEO & Co-Founder, Pocketed), Aria Hahn (CTO, Pocketed), and Humaira Ahmed (CEO, Locelle Digital) to find out.
