# Event Details - **Event Name**: Launchpad: Idea to Impact - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 22 Aug, 2026 at 01:30 pm – Sat, 22 Aug, 2026 at 05:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Empowering the Next Generation of EntrepreneursAbout this EventMost entrepreneurship events send you home inspired and empty-handed.Launchpad is built to send you home with three things instead: an idea worth chasing, a tool you can actually use, and someone worth calling.On Saturday, August 22, BC-India Business Network is bringing together a room of people at Trinity Western University's Richmond campus. Students working out where to start. Founders who shipped something last month and are still learning who it's for. Engineers and designers who want to build something of their own. Mentors and business leaders who remember exactly what that felt like.The afternoon runs in four parts. A founder tells the honest version of their story — the decisions, the mistakes, what they'd do differently. A workshop puts one practical tool in your hands. Then four or five early-stage founders take the floor, not to demo polished products, but to explain the problem they're solving, what they've learned so far, and what they need next: cofounders, technical partners, people who want in early. Then an open hour with refreshments, mentors on hand, and time to actually talk to someone.If you have an idea, come and work out what to do with it. If you've already built something, come and find the people who'll build it with you. And if you're just curious what's happening in this community, that works too.Doors open at 1:30 PM. The program starts at 2:00 PM. Refreshments provided. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/richmond/launchpad-idea-to-impact/100001996196367070 - **Event Categories**: business, art, workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 3 hours 30 minutes - Location: Trinity Western University - Richmond (Lansdowne) - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 27.96, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Richmond - **state**: BC - **country**: Canada - **location**: Trinity Western University - Richmond (Lansdowne) - **lat**: 49.1765084 - **long**: -123.1342466 - **full address**: Trinity Western University - Richmond (Lansdowne), 5300 Number 3 Road, Richmond, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Launchpad: Idea to Impact - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/f1ae7ea5e540bc480c977e4ece2de49bd672fe18cda28696004bb158458772d7-rimg-w1200-h600-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg?v=1786233787 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Launchpad: Idea to Impact being held? - **A:** Launchpad: Idea to Impact takes place on Sat, 22 Aug, 2026 at 01:30 pm to Sat, 22 Aug, 2026 at 05:00 pm at Trinity Western University - Richmond (Lansdowne), 5300 Number 3 Road, Richmond, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Launchpad: Idea to Impact? - **A:** Launchpad: Idea to Impact is organized by BC-IBN. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
