Join us for an engaging evening with some of the Lower Mainland’s key infrastructure owners. Featuring representatives from the City of Vancouver, City of New Westminster, BC Hydro and TransLink, this event will offer valuable insights into past projects, client priorities, and looking ahead to the future of infrastructure in the Lower Mainland.
Each organization will deliver a short presentation capturing topics such as:
- Ongoing or upcoming projects
- Key initiatives and areas of focus
- Looking forward to the future of infrastructure
Following the presentations, attendees will have the opportunity to network with representatives from each organization.
