Digital Okanagan is a community of creative and entrepreneurial professionals from across the valley, represented by a wide spectrum of digital professions and specializations such as agencies, artists, developers, designers, educational and cultural institutions, freelancers, startups, and students.



We believe:



Collaboration > Competition

Community > Agendas

Participation > Observation

Doing > Saying

Friendship > Formality

Learning > Expertise



Digital Okanagan creates experiences that encourage digital and technology professionals to explore shared interests in and outside of work. Our array of learning, sharing, connecting events provide opportunities to break loose from the status quo and explore exciting new things while building lasting relationships with our peers.



We have run hundreds of successful meetups, covering everything from typography to inversion control, and from cryptocurrency to sketchnoting. We’ve just wrapped the 4th annual Startup Weekend Okanagan and through strategic partnerships, developed 10 day long ‘Startup Week’ conference.



What is Digital Okanagan?



As a grassroots volunteer driven community group, we work with a variety of industries throughout the Okanagan, to activate a large network of digital media and technology professionals.



Our ambition is to make the Okanagan the greatest place to do what we love... together.



Through our actions, it is our goal to:



Sustain the growth of the Okanagan’s digital media community within our province, country and globally.



Celebrate and promote individuals and organizations that foster creativity, technology and digital media in the Okanagan.



Engage with and encourage new and established professionals to stay in the Okanagan in order to increase capacity and productivity within the industry.



Promote openness, creativity and collaboration between individuals and organizations, acting as the digital hub for our community.



Through this connection and support we believe that our industry will thrive.
