Ehsan's Market Analysis

Vancouver is an underrated market for healthtech innovation. While most attention goes to Silicon Valley, Vancouver's 1,200+ startups are building companies adapted to local market dynamics. The $100K average salary creates interesting unit economics for bootstrapped and capital-efficient companies. My recommendation: start with a niche, own it, then expand.
