VEF Momentum was founded under the Vancouver Enterprise Forum with the purpose of connecting, inspiring and mentoring aspiring and emerging technology entrepreneurs in Vancouver.

Momentum Connect events play an important role in building a community around Vancouver’s technology entrepreneur community. These events primarily serve to connect young technology entrepreneurs with the people, resources and answers they need to succeed. Events are held quarterly at central venues and focus on offering a conducive networking environment and short, but inspiring speaker sessions. The success of these events can be attributed to the successful execution of the following principles:

• The content must be relevant to first-time technology entrepreneurs.
• Events should be as open and accessible as possible.
• Connecting with people should not feel like a chore. Every event should be comfortable and conducive to networking and peer mentorship.
