Year in Review: Vancouver’s Tech Ecosystem, Global Stages, and Everything We Launched in 2025

2025 was the year Launch Academy turned 13 years old.

We welcomed new companies into the Launch community, represented Vancouver’s tech ecosystem on global stages, partnered with Global Relay to launch The Vancouver Tech Hub, and brought back Launch Builders Demo Night.

Along the way, we supported community-led events and explored new ways to share knowledge, insights, and opportunities across the ecosystem.

This Year in Review is our way of pausing, reflecting, and saying thank you — to our founders, members, partners, and friends who continue to build with us.
