​PNWER's Hybrid 2021 Economic Leadership Forum ​was held in Vancouver, B.C. from November 17-19!

The Economic Leadership Forum provides an opportunity for local, provincial, and state leaders in both the public and private sectors to carry out in-depth discussions on key subjects affecting our regional economy. This year's Economic Leadership Forum was held as a hybrid in-person/virtual event.

If you were unable to join us for the Forum, you can view session recordings and presentations here. Recordings and presentations are still be added so check back soon!

​We were proud to partner with the Future Borders Coalition (FBC) for our Economic Leadership Forum. The FBC met on Wednesday, November 17 to discuss strategies and priorities for the air, land, and sea border crossings along with challenges to the supply chain. PNWER attendees were welcome to attend the FBC sessions on November 17th, and FBC members were invited to stay for the remainder of the Economic Leadership Forum as well. 

This year, PNWER held our Economic Leadership Forum following the Cascadia Innovation Corridor's Annual Conference (November 16-17).

COVID-19 Health Safety Policy

The Economic Leadership Forum will be a hybrid event with the opportunity for registrants to attend and network virtually should they elect not to attend in-person. We recognize the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the pandemic and will continue to monitor public health guidance. 

PNWER will abide by current provincial and local health guidelines and venue policies as it relates to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the event, measures will be taken to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19, including requiring all attendees to show proof of full vaccination, requiring the use of masks while indoors, and allowing for social distancing. 
​

We encourage you to take appropriate precautions against the infection or spread of COVID-19 out of respect for yourself and others. If you are feeling sick or are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, we ask that you stay home, and we encourage you to attend virtually. We will honor full refunds for those who need to cancel due to COVID-19. 

​For current B.C. policies, please visit news.interiorhealth.ca/news/provincial-and-regional-restrictions/
Updates are determined by the province monthly.

Thank you to all our PNWER Sponsors!
