Description:
Vancouver Connector’s mission is to connect people in the city with shared values and beliefs so that they can do more together.
This Vancouver A.I. Connector event connects tech professionals in Vancouver who hold the following shared beliefs:
- We see A.I. as the future
- The prospect of that future excites us

If these beliefs resonate with you, don’t miss an opportunity to surround yourself with like-minded individuals, collaborate with the best AI minds in the city, and become actively involved in the A.I. revolution.

Discord Group
Prior to the event, you will be added to a private Discord group so that you can have a chance to introduce yourself and potentially setup meetings for the event. Come event time, you should expect a warm crowd and some familiar faces! The discord community also serves as a persistent avenue of valuable resources and connections for all things A.I. in Vancouver, beyond the termination of the event.
Event Format
The goal of the event is to inspire collaboration between like-minded individuals, so the format will be a little unorthodox.
- Presentation lectures: panelists will each give a presentation on their domain of expertise related to A.I.
- Panel Discussion: a diverse set of speakers from different backgrounds: startup, venture capital, academia, and engineering will share their insights on various topics, while the audience also participates via Slido
- Open Floor: attendees will have a chance to roam around the room and speak to other individuals
- Post-Event: event follow-ups will be posted on a dedicated Discord event channel, including photos and any other media
