The Innovators Experts Panel
The way we value those who are truly innovative says something profound about our time and culture. We no longer look up to the classic heroes of industry, who simply extended railways or increased mill production. Our role models today are not content to simply expand and improve but rather to create – those whose inspiration comes from what might be, rather than what is.
In celebration of that inspiring and mysterious combination of imagination and action, we present our second annual ranking of B.C.’s top innovators. A panel of 13 experts representing many sectors, including technology, marketing, real estate and health, helped us to come up with our long list of contenders. We found 50 solid candidates and, with the help of our panel, chose 20 for the final list.
We were specifically looking for stories that haven’t been told before, projects that are having a real impact today and ideas with the potential to change our world tomorrow. It’s an eclectic mix that chronicles the restless intellects and relentless energies that typify this province’s top minds. We hope you’ll have as much fun reading it as we did putting it together.
