The HiVE is a coworking community with wild dreams of building a network of knowledge, connection and innovative action in order to take on society’s most complex challenges.
Our mission is to support and amplify the social impact sector by providing the social cohesion, human capital, and resources that enable our members and partners to thrive.
To us, social impact means creating a sustainable, just, and inclusive economy that values people and planet above profit. We believe that in order to create social impact, Vancouver’s change-makers need to have a strong culture of collaboration along with accessible support services in place. We’re making this happen by using the powerful tool of shared space to cowork, host events, deliver programming, and build community.
Our members come from diverse sectors, backgrounds, and places, but they all have a passion to make the world a better place. Our community is made up of non-profits, for-profits, entrepreneurs, creatives, activists, professionals, and techies who are challenging the status quo. Together, we have skills in finance, green building, education, food systems, sustainability, law, design, community development, and everything in between!
