BC Tech Summit 2016 at Canada Place in Vancouver, Canada
In January, The Grady Firm attorneys connected with Vancouver area technology businesses and entrepreneurs at the #BCTECH Summit. With more than 8,500 of British Columbia’s top universities, companies, and entrepreneurs, in attendance, BC Tech Summit is the largest business technology conference in British Columbia on the west coast of Canada.

The #BCTECH Summit is a two-day event that showcased BC’s vibrant technology industry, built cross-sector opportunities for businesses, and explored the latest ideas that will drive a competitive advantage for BC. The Grady Firm’s founder, Jennifer Grady, attended the conference on January 18 and 19, 2016, and met with some of Canada’s most enterprising business owners.
During her stay in Vancouver, Ms. Grady counseled individuals that wanted to learn more about the issues that face their particular industries (tech, health and wellness, art, and cyber security) when opening a new branch or subsidiary south of the border in the US.
She also explained which visas are available to Canadian entrepreneurs, such as the TN (NAFTA) Professional visa; the H-1B “specialty occupation” visa; the E-2 investor visa; the L-1 Intracompany Transferee Executive or Manager visa; and the EB-5 “million dollar investor” visa.
