Last week at Vancity Innovation House 2026 was absolutely incredible. 🏛️🔥 1500+ global leaders, investors, founders, policymakers, and builders. One building. One day. The most curated gathering of Web Summit Vancouver week.

Our CEO @dburgar.bsky.social spoke at SXSW in Austin, this week alongside Kasley Killan (author of The Art and Science of Connection), Lambert Hogenhout (UN), and Tobias Peyerl (OpenAI). Big theme: AI is accelerating fast, but the real pressure is on the human layer.

What an incredible Frontier Summit. Hard to put into words. This wasn’t just another summit, it was a reminder why we build. AI will change everything, but if we forget who we’re building for, we’ve already lost the plot. We need bold moonshots, with humanity at the center.

Gold medal energy at @frontierco.bsky.social Frontier Summit 🥇 Two 🇨🇦 Olympic legends Penny Oleksiak & Jennifer Heil brought pure inspiration to Grouse Mountain. I’ve watched them win on the world stage, but their mindset, patience, and approach to life impressed me even more. #FrontierSummit

Europe’s moving fast on AI — and with purpose. At #TallinnDigitalSummit, Frontier Collective joined Heads of State to explore how Canada can lead and collaborate in shaping a more human, global AI future. The world isn’t waiting. Neither should we. 🇨🇦

In a tech revolution, it’s not the innovation alone that matters, it’s the people, the collisions, the clarity of what’s next. Vancity Innovation House wasn’t just the talk of Web Summit Vancouver. It was a shift. A global movement, born in Vancouver. 🎥 Watch the wrap video ⬇️

One day. 2,700+ people. Endless collisions. Vancity Innovation House lit up Web Summit Vancouver—bringing founders, funders & creatives together for frontier innovation. Panels, demos, music, $20K pitch comp, real connection. And we’re just getting started.

Day 1 of Beyond the Frontier NYC at @newlabglobal.bsky.social was electric. In a city where attention is hard to earn, we built a room full of real trust, bold ideas & momentum. From AI ethics to mobility to cognitive tech—this wasn't just talk. We started building the future, together.

Still riding the high from the first-ever #SXSWLondon. Our fireside wasn’t just about AI—it was about building bold ecosystems for an age of urgency. If we build with outdated models, we risk losing the human edge. Innovation must be intentional, connected, and brave.

Canada’s at an inflection point. At #NACOSummit in Ottawa, our CEO @dburgar.bsky.social called it out: We need to be less Canadian in our mindset. More bold. More global. More urgent. The world isn’t waiting — and neither should we. Let’s build like the future depends on it.

B.C.’s 2025 budget fails to prioritize innovation and growth. A record $10.9B deficit, no major investments, and a passive approach won’t future-proof our economy. We need bold action, not just contingency plans.
