Last night Wantsa held an event for social media types in order to introduce their brand and offer up some teaser information about their powerful online recommendation engine that’s soon to launch. The evening was organized by one of their latest team members, Colleen Coplick, who is no stranger to the Vancouver new media scene.

I’ve been fortunate enough to have been able to experience our region from air and sea recently. Each time I take a step back and observe where I call home, realizing that I actually get to live in a place like this, it takes my breath away.

I would like to thank Wantsa for the lovely evening and this fantastic opportunity – I’m looking forward to seeing them grow their innovative product.
