Are you an entrepreneur or do you have a business idea?
We are excited to announce the launch of SPARK VI – Ideas to Impact, a new regional community for entrepreneurs on Vancouver Island to connect, learn, and grow in partnership with the University of Victoria.
Come learn about our initiative and join the movement:
- Joel Knox from Qualicum Kombucha: sharing his entrepreneurial journey and insights from building a local business.
- Daniela Fischer: introducing our regional entrepreneurship opportunities and how SPARK VI can support founders.
- Jerome Etwaroo from UVIC Innovation Centre: speaking on the entrepreneurial mindset and how it drives success.
SPARK VI is about turning Ideas to Impact — bringing together entrepreneurs to share knowledge, spark collaborations, and make bold ideas a reality.
Come be part of the launch and help shape this growing community of innovators on Vancouver Island!
