Last week’s NEXUS Nights at Web Summit Vancouver was everything a great activation should be—elevated, inspiring, and full of connection. ⁠
⁠
Hosted by Ryan, Ekohe, and Tropoly across two stunning levels at 320 Granville, the evening featured rooftop views, firepits, curated cocktails by Edge Catering—and the exclusive 'Fast Five' experience, presented by PORTFOLIO.YVR Business & Entrepreneurs Magazine.⁠
⁠
Invited guests joined Editor-in-Chief Helen Siwak for a rapid-fire video session answering five questions tailored to their industry, designed to spotlight the innovation and vision shaping BC’s business landscape.⁠
⁠
💬 “Each guest brought something uniquely inspiring to the table... It was the power of Web Summit that brought us all together,” said Helen.⁠

Innovation Taking Centre Stage at Inaugural Web Summit Vancouver⁠
⁠
Web Summit Vancouver made a striking debut by welcoming 15,727 attendees from 117 countries to the city’s vibrant tech ecosystem. A record 1,108 startups from 64 countries exhibited—an unprecedented turnout for a first-year Web Summit Vancouver edition.⁠
⁠
Among the standout local initiatives during the week was an activation by Portfolio.YVR Business & Entrepreneurs Magazine, held during the exclusive NEXUS Night at Grant Thornton Tower. Co-hosted by Ryan, Ekohe, and Tropoly, the evening welcomed 150 curated guests from Vancouver’s innovation ecosystem. ⁠
⁠
At the heart of the activation was the Fast Five Challenge, an on-camera rapid-fire interview series featuring past Portfolio.YVR subjects and emerging leaders.⁠
⁠
