Welcome to SOARE

We believe there is strength in numbers, and are creating the first formalized network for the 380+ firms and supporting organizations within the Sea to Sky Region. This cluster consists of adventure-based media, technical gear and apparel design, and advanced manufacturing, supporting over 820 high paying jobs.

SOARE is a member-driven non profit organization, and is to support and accelerate our Member businesses. This non-profit is a physical and virtual space that makes it easier for businesses to meet; to share the skills, resources and relationships that will push them even further, and cement our reputation as world leaders in the Outdoor Industry.

We do this through a combination of industry specific events, networking, and a physical innovation center where businesses can come, create, and prototype their next product.

Your membership allows us to actively drive change not only within SOARE, but bolster how we can advocate for the Outdoor Industry at large. By becoming a member, you join a collective of innovative brands and businesses, helping uplift the sector for us all.
