Talent is a critical resource for the technology sector. Currently, BC technology firms source talent locally from new grads of BC tech programs, bring in talent through inter-provincial or international immigration, or retrain existing BC residents. Using tech degrees granted per capita as indicative of talent availability, BC’s talent pool growth has increased by 9% between 2015 and 2017.
Talent sourcing and retention remain a critical priority, as does providing small to medium-sized companies with the domestic capital, R&D resources, and go-to market supports to reach their full potential.
