Accelerate Okanagan (AO) is set to release a crucial analysis of the region’s tech sector, highlighting its economic impact since 2017. Back then, nearly 700 tech businesses and a 12,000-strong workforce generated $1.7B. This autumn, AO’s “Acceleration Stack” kicks off, offering five core programs to support the region’s growing ecosystem of startups: Venture Validation, Market Ready, Fundable, Okanagan Angel Summit, and ThreeSixty. These programs, backed by Innovate BC and NRC Canada, offer mentorship, funding guidance, and networking opportunities. An info session on August 8 is to be followed by applications opening on August 12.
