British Columbia Grant Gazette

• Attention Municipalities. Grants and Your Municipality: Artificial Intelligence and Grant Writing. Webinar tomorrow, February 4 at 10 AM MST. Guest speakers from PrairiesCan and Mitacs will join us. Register here. 
• Starting this week, you’ll notice a new feature at the bottom of your Gazette: we are launching an additional Gazette in BC. Instead of clicking “list of grants,” you will now click on your specific province. 
• If you know anyone in BC who might be interested in the BC Gazette, they can sign up on this page.

Pro Tip:

We have two grant agencies (Mitacs and PrairiesCan) coming to talk about Artificial Intelligence (AI) from their perspective tomorrow. If you are a municipality, you are encouraged to attend. I would also like to extend the invitation to anyone receiving this email, especially to VIP grant writers looking to educate themselves on AI. 

The content will be tailored to municipalities, but I’m expecting everyone will learn at least one thing new. Here is the link to register. It takes place online tomorrow (Feb 4) at 10 AM MST. Duration is 1 hour.
