Innovation UBC’s 2026 Venture Showcase
Mark your calendars for our 2026 Venture Showcase, Innovation UBC’s annual event spotlighting UBC ventures moving research to impact
Across our community, UBC researchers and innovators are transforming research outcomes into real-world impact through company building. Last year’s Showcase drew 360 guests to UBC Robson Square, a 44% jump from 2024, with investor engagement up 112% year over year. Join us on December 1 to connect with the wider ecosystem and meet entrepreneurs leading their industries at the 2026 Venture Showcase!
