The objective was to discuss what good would look like 5, 10 and 20 years out in terms of economic impact, company creation and great employment opportunities for the next generation in our community. The belief was that through a collective voice and shared vision the chances of a positive outcome with significant community impact would be maximized. One of the outcomes of these discussions was the development of the new Kelowna Innovation Centre that opened in April 2017.Jeff considers it a tremendous privilege to be involved in helping to grow the Okanagan tech community and looks forward to continuing to be involved for many years to come.If you enjoyed this episode, an iTunes review would be SO appreciated!
