BC Business Leaders & Entrepreneurs

People are people, sang Depeche Mode. Hell is other people, wrote Sartre. At BCBusiness, we chart a course between the two. More than BC is a quilt of businesses and industrial sectors, BC is a quilt of people. People with dreams. People with aspirations in business. People with stories. BCBusiness, with its glittering array of writers, editors, and artists, commits to bringing you the human side of Canadian business and entrepreneurship. The stories behind the people behind the businesses. We think you'll like what you see: a signature mix of reporting on and profiles of the people that shape – and are shaped by –  business in BC.
