Events
The most up-to-date information on our events is always stored over on our Meetup page.
We encourage you to become a member of our Meetup group for several reasons:
- It helps us a lot if people RSVP (and you need to be a member to RSVP) – that way we know how many chairs, cups, etc. we’re going to need.
- It allows us to email you if there are changes in plans, or important updates between events.
- Creating a profile helps other people learn a little about who you are before the next event.

Our first meeting was Monday, October 19th, 2009. We kicked things off with some introductions – got to meet each other, share what we’ve got up our sleeves & what’s been working in Seattle, and most importantly, gave everyone in attendance a chance to tell us what they’d been dying to get out of a Vancouver business group.
We’ve posted the initial results from the meeting here.
