ImagineBC Deadline Approaching

Greetings Co-op members in BC,

A reminder that the ImagineBC submission deadline is December 19. Watch the video at ImagineBC.ca for inspiration, to learn more about the initiative, and how to submit your idea.

You may recall that the Co-op and its partners announced the launch of ImagineBC in September. For the Co-op, ImagineBC was inspired by the tremendous contributions of previous Co-op Board Directors and current members. The initiative is made possible thanks to our partnership with the Irving K Barber Learning Centre, University of British Columbia Libraries, and Simon Fraser University Libraries. Together, we intend to incubate and enable grassroots innovation opportunities.

ImagineBC is a chance for any citizen, group, or organization in British Columbia to describe an innovative idea that improves their community and receive incubation funding to make it happen. We are looking for ideas that address a community need or interest such as: volunteerism, small business development, digital literacy, community engagement, language & cultural needs, or local history.

We look forward to hearing your ideas!
