Steve Michoulas, with the Vancouver Airport Authority (YVR), is the keynote speaker at the Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon, Wednesday, February 18 at the Prestige Rocky Mountain Resort.

“The Vancouver Airport Authority is embarking on a journey to connect B.C. to the world. Doing so requires a team effort from key communities including Cranbrook,” said Michoulas.

“We want to share with the Cranbrook business community our vision and how it is advantageous for all of us to work together.”

Chamber Executive Director David D. Hull is excited to have the YVR Authority present to the membership.  “Mr. Michoulas has a compelling story of why YVR matters to all of B.C.”

YVR is Canada’s second-busiest airport and employs more than 24,000 people and is a key economic generator for British Columbia.
