Well… this happened!

I’m really proud to have shared the stage with such awesome founders!

Rootd was recently recognized as the winner of the Vancity Innovation Pitch Competition, taking home the $20,000 prize at the first-ever Vancity Innovation House during Web Summit Vancouver.

The experience of presenting alongside other talented entrepreneurs was both humbling and energizing.

Local Innovation

The room felt incredibly supportive, and I always leave giddy and inspired after seeing all the creativity and cool work happening locally.

There’s something special about witnessing the entrepreneurial spirit thriving in your own community. It felt extra special to be part of something close to home.
