“Vancouver is one of the fastest growing tech hubs,” says Katie Fitzmaurice of Invest Vancouver. Fitzmaurice points to the significant announcement at the second annual Web Summit, when US-based Nutanix announced it was expanding significantly into Vancouver. The reason, says Fitzmaurice, is that “we have the talent, we have a world class tech sector, and we have a quality of life that attracts global talent.”
According to Nutanix, “Vancouver is where we are building our centre of excellence for Nutanix Agentic AI, and we are making a long-term commitment to the region and to the talent here,” Fitzmaurice says. “It’s confirmation [that] the Invest Vancouver ‘Invest Talent’ initiative is working… Working with industry, we set out to accelerate training, scale, attract investment, and innovate and it’s working.”
According to Invest Vancouver, the region is the western anchor of critical infrastructure and cyber-relevant secure digital capability. It is also a major hub for prime majors such as Microsoft, AWS, Fortinet, MDA, and the new RBC innovation hub that works alongside the Borealis AI and Cybersecurity R&D facility.
We invited Katie Fitzmaurice of Invest Vancouver to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the dynamic expansion to Vancouver’s Tech Centre and what lies ahead.

![The Odds of You Being You (w/ Ali Binazir) An Unbroken Line
About four and a half billion years ago, Earth’s Hadean eon was undergoing significant geological and chemical changes. Evidence suggests that the Earth’s first crust was forming and the beginnings of life were lining up. Fast-forward 3.8 billion years and biological life started to emerge shortly after the formation of the oceans.
It was a turbulent time in Earth’s history and the evidence suggests that human intelligence emerged a few million years ago. “If you consider everything that had to happen to allow for human life to emerge from the biological soup, the odds worked against it ever happening,” says Dr. Ali Binazir, the author of “Are you a Miracle? On the Probability of You Being Born” and “Five Hidden Love Questions.”
Now add in the odds of you being born you – not your brother, not your sister, not your cousin. You. Binazir says, “When you factor in the 155,000 generations of your family that preceded you, the odds are one in 400 quadrillion against you being born [as] you.” In other words, you are a miracle.
We invited Dr. Ali Binazir to join us for a Conversation That Matters about embracing the magic and miracle of being born you.

![How to Stop Child Sex Trafficking (w/ Cathy Peters)
“Did you know that if a young teen sends a nude photo of themself in exchange for a gift card or a ride or something else that they want, they are being sex trafficked? asks Cathy Peters, the author of “Child Sex Trafficking in the USA and How to Stop It.” Most children and many adults do not know that when they share explicit photos of themselves in exchange for a product or service, they are being trafficked and drawn into a world that is hard to exit.
Peters says, “Once you get seduced into sharing your body in exchange for a payout, you are hooked. The bad actors on the other end of the line have you and your image and they will use it to extort more from you… the speed with which demands for more escalates rapidly and can be deadly.” In far too many cases, the victim is coerced into acts of self harm and even suicide.
Peters points to the tragic cases where victims are enticed to meet someone they only met online. “Kailey’s story is horrible,” says Peters. “She was enticed to meet a man after just two weeks of online interaction. They went to a restaurant, drank alcohol [and] after which, she went to his house. His friends joined them and she was raped. She fled, was caught, and murdered.”
We invited Cathy Peters, the author of “Child Sex Trafficking in the USA and How to Stop It,” to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the need to be hyper-vigilant when dealing with anyone you don’t know online, especially if you are a teen.
