Hey everyone,

We’re halfway through the year, which feels both impossible and, somehow, about right.

So before we all get pulled too deep into summer mode, we wanted to pause and look back at what you’ve been reading most in 2026 so far.

The list below is a pretty good snapshot of where Vancouver tech is right now: major raises, meaningful exits, AI everywhere, founders building in public, government betting on the sector, and a few pieces that seemed to capture a broader shift in the market.

Some of these stories are big because of the numbers. Some because of the people behind them. And some because they helped explain what’s actually changing for founders, operators, and investors in B.C.

Here are the stories that caught your attention most this year.
