The Surrey roots
The room already had its own gravity.
Surrey AI built the momentum: practical conversations, playful experiments, new collaborators, and a reason to gather south of the Fraser without crossing a bridge first.
FV+AI keeps that spirit and opens the circle. Everyone from Langley to Chilliwack now has a home base for responsible, useful AI, without the hype theatre.
The chapter manifesto
What happens here should matter here.
AI should not be something that only happens downtown or in someone else's pitch deck. FV+AI is where the Valley's builders, farmers, artists, educators, students, and civic leaders compare notes and make it useful close to home.
Start local. Stay connected.
