About The Thread
The Thread is a grassroots, volunteer-led initiative redefining what community means for women in Vancouver’s tech and startup scene, creating the kind of invisible thread we all wish existed. Launched during the Web Summit in May 2025, The Thread emerged from one clear need: to create real-life connections in a city where the tech and startup scene often feels isolating and transactional.
Our mission is to shift that landscape by connecting the dots through in-person, heart-led gatherings, peer-led initiatives, and crucial conversations for women in Vancouver and beyond.
At The Thread:
- You can show up as you are, job seeker or founder, and feel equally valued.
- Our conversations go deeper than job titles.
- Every woman+ leaves feeling seen, appreciated, and supported.
We believe community is built through continuity, shared ownership, and a deep sense of belonging. When women feel safe to connect without needing to prove or perform, real change happens for women, and for the ecosystem around them.
