March 2022 VentureLabs Facilities Update
Following the SFU return to campus plan, we continue to enforce layers of protection to keep our companies, partners, and staff safe. This includes wearing masks indoors and sanitizing shared surfaces.
Proof of vaccination using the BC Vaccine Card is required to access certain non-essential activities, events, and businesses at SFU. This includes SFU VentureLabs’ office space on the 11th and 12th floors. Anyone aged 12 and older must provide proof of vaccination via their BC Vaccine Card to Member Services on the 12th floor when they come onsite.
For member companies who wish to return to the co-working space or partner organizations who wish to rent event space at VentureLabs, please contact our client services team. Please note that we’re following SFU guidelines and onsite plans may change.
