On June 8, 2017, ICICS and e@UBC teamed up to co-host a Venture Showcase in the UBC Alumni Centre. The event featured 22 ventures that have emerged recently from UBC’s entrepreneurship support programs, including the HATCH tech startup incubator in the ICICS building. The Showcase displayed the success of UBC’s increasingly mature innovation pipeline, from basic research funding through to market launch of resulting startups, in the areas of core tech, social impact, and healthcare.
