About the Event
As tech firms lay off workers and embrace flexible work-from-home options, they are also re-evaluating plans for job growth and corporate locations. Opportunities persist to attract 3rd-country nationals pinched by the U.S.’s restrictive immigration policies, tech workers who’ve recently been laid off (including Canadians who may be considering returning to Canada) and hiring / managing remote workers.
In this panel, we will gather senior policy, business, and cross-border practitioners to discuss trends from the view of British Columbia, Canada.
The panellists will consider trends in cross-border business planning and growth; how tech firms are leveraging cross-border opportunities to optimize their talent strategies; and current cross-border tax and immigration policies and considerations.
Beverages (including Canadian wine and beer!) and hors d'oeuvres will be served, with networking before and after the discussion.
OUR CHESTERFIELD PANELISTS:
Honourable Brenda Bailey, Minister of Jobs, Economic Development, and Innovation, Province of B.C.
