Things To Do in Vancouver While You’re In Town For CTAConf!

Vancouver is famous for a few things; it’s where Deadpool was filmed, it’s where the Olympics were hosted in 2010, it’s where Seth Rogan grew up and it’s one of the only places in the world where you can jump in the ocean, climb a mountain and go shopping in an Apple Store all within a day. But let’s face it, when you’re presented with such a wide variety of Read More...

Community Engagement at Unbounce

If you’ve been to the Unbounce HQ office in Vancouver, you may have noticed the blue and orange mural in our reception area. It’s a cleverly designed panorama of Vancouver integrating our company’s six core values. The values listed on the wall are more than colourful jargon, they guide our conduct with our customers, one another and our community. The actual making of the mural is one of the best Read More...

Unbounce Attends The Art of Leadership for Women

As many of you might know from Rick’s last post on our Year in Review, Unbounce is trying a lot of new things this year–and one of them is increasing the work we do around gender diversity. We’ve made some great strides and I’m proud to say that Unbounce is now considering elements of gender diversity in the tech industry that a lot of companies (still) won’t dare touch. Some Read More...

The 20 Coffees Project: Tanis Jorge

Do you remember your first kindergarten craft? Was it macaroni? Papier maché? Macramé? Mine was a modified version of crochet that I’ll refer to here as faux-crochet (at least there weren’t sparkles). Despite my young age, I remember the lifecycle of that project. Ideation. Production. Anxiety. Presentation. Accomplishment. There were critical decisions to be made at every turn. Red yarn or purple? Short stitch or long? How do I even Read More...

Tech Security Talks

A few weeks ago Clayten Hamacher, a software developer from Salesforce came down to Unbounce’s office (we’re in the same building) to pitch a day-long security conference. He had a lot of great ideas, but needed a partner in crime to help execute on them. We sat down and after some initial planning, decided to scale it back to one night of talks on tech security. Chris Evans, the head Read More...

What I Learned from 12 Events in 6 Weeks

In October 2013, I began a new role heading up ‘Community Development’ for Unbounce. What the hell is Community Development you may ask? Well the definition expanded about every single day into the role, but the gist of it is promoting Unbounce the company. Up until the fall, our kickass Marketing team were working their magic to promote Unbounce the product, but the overall promotion and storytelling of our company Read More...
