BC Business, a British Columbia-based business magazine and online news site, has released its inaugural list of its 30 Under 30 winners.
Several notable names that we’ve written about appeared on the list, including Covr/WittyCookie/NeedleHR founder Michael Cheng, the creator of the “Hollow Flashlight,” Ann Makosinski, Appnovation Technologies Inc founder Arnold Leung, A Thinking Ape Technologies Inc. cofounder Eric Diep, Medeo Corp CEO Ryan Wilson and many more we’d love to interview.
One CEO runs a business called “Fuck Cancer”, named Yael Cohen.
The concept was well received with hundreds of nominations submitted from across the province. “There’s a lot of talent rising in the ranks right now”, says O’Grady. “Narrowing it down to 30 was a difficult task, but we’re thrilled to have published an exceptional inaugural list of young men and women”.
To celebrate the group of over-achievers, BCBusiness will host their first annual 30 Under 30 event on April 30th at 130 West in Vancouver where attendees can network with and glean from tomorrow’s most talented leaders.
