Rootd is an app offering panic attack and anxiety relief right in your pocket, and a powerful example of how tech can be used for good [based in Victoria, BC, and recent winner of the VIATEC Award for Leader of the Year, Ania Wysocka].
As part of Web Summit Vancouver, Vancity teamed up with Frontier Collective to launch the first-ever Vancity Innovation House: a buzzing hub of panels, fireside chats, demos, and hands-on activations from leaders in climate tech, AI, fintech, mobility, clean energy, and beyond.
At the heart of it all? Bold conversations, and real action, around building a more sustainable, inclusive economy.
Vancity was proud to sponsor the Vancity Innovation Pitch Competition, offering a $20,000 prize to an early-stage startup making an impact through innovation.
