Building a company alone costs you more than you think.
Nobody in your life fully understands what you're carrying. You tell your friends business is great, then wonder privately whether you're making the right calls.
Meanwhile, a problem someone else could solve in ten minutes stays stuck for months, because the person with the answer has never met you. The cost is real: the deal you never heard about, the hire you couldn't find, the pricing mistake you kept making.
Victoria Builds puts you alongside 120+ young entrepreneurs in Victoria who have already faced what you're facing, through events, small masterminds, and a group chat where questions get answered, intros get made, and hires get found.
One introduction from the right person can be worth thousands of dollars to your business.

What Victoria
Builds Is NOT
A Suited Corporate Event
No dress code, and nobody puts on a fake professional front. These events are for real conversations, not fancy business language.
A Group of “Wantrapreneurs”
Application-only, and every member has to own a business. We don't let in people who haven't taken action on starting something.
An Event Full of Pitches and Sales
Pitching is banned. Anyone who uses the room for sales gets kicked out.
A Revenue Competition
We don't allow people who are only there to flex revenue and not provide real value.

Frequently
Asked Questions
What exactly do I get with the membership?
Monthly pickleball, monthly networking dinners, bonus brainstorming sessions, and a private WhatsApp group with 110+ of Victoria BC's top young entrepreneurs where you can ask for advice, ask for intros, or hire staff, all for $27/mo.
Which industries are the members in?
Members run all kinds of businesses, e-commerce, agencies, real estate, trades, tech, and more. What matters isn't the industry, it's that every member actually owns and operates their own business.
I've been to networking events before and didn't like them.
Most networking events are full of suits, pitches, and small talk. Ours aren't. Pitching is banned, there's no dress code, and every member is application-only and vetted, so the conversations are real instead of transactional.
What if I don't have time to attend all the events?
You're never required to attend every event. Come to the ones that fit your schedule, and you'll still have full access to the private WhatsApp group every day in between.
How do I know this will make me money?
We can't guarantee results, nobody honestly can. What we can say is that one connection, intro, or idea from the right room can unlock revenue you wouldn't have found on your own, and that's the entire reason Victoria Builds exists.
What if I don't live in Victoria?
We offer an out of town membership for $125/year, which gives you access to one event every 2 months (6 events per year).
