About Vancouver

Pacific gateway economy — heavy on construction, real estate services, trade, hospitality, and clean tech SMBs.

What is local to Vancouver

Vancouver's film, TV and digital media sector, more than 1,000 businesses by Invest Vancouver's count, runs on camera, lighting, grip and post-production gear, much of it bought by rental houses and production service firms. Equipment financing spreads the cost of that gear over its working life, secured by the gear itself, so a new package can start earning before it is paid off.

The Port of Vancouver, Canada's largest port, handles about $365 billion of trade a year with 170 countries and about half of Canada's two-way container trade, according to the port authority. Invest Vancouver, Metro Vancouver's economic development service, calls the region North America's third-largest film and TV production centre, with 1,000+ digital media and entertainment businesses and 40,000+ workers.
