From YYC to Silicon Valley: The Journey to Building a Billion Dollar Tech Company

​​Save the date. TKS is teaming up with FJ Yang, Co-Founder and CEO of Imply, for the keynote talk of the century.

​FJ will be coming to share his story — from growing up in Calgary to building a billion-dollar tech company in the Bay Area. He’ll talk about the real journey behind it all: the risks, the breakthroughs, and the lessons he picked up along the way. Whether you’re into startups, tech, or just curious about how big ideas come to life, this is a chance to hear from someone who's done it.

We will also be serving pizza at this event 🍕
