“As someone who works in the outdoor recreational industry, I was drawn to Kimberley for the fantastic outdoor based lifestyle it has created for our family, but also for the positive impact this has on my job. KORE’s objective of bringing outdoor recreational companies to the Kootenays will benefit everyone – the employees, companies, the towns and our existing population. I can’t wait for it to take shape!”

“KORE Is an exciting development for the Kootenays, we have the perfect playground on our doorstep in which to use and develop outdoor equipment. As a small manufacturer I’m looking forward to what KORE will bring to our area and how it will bring the outdoor industry together”

“We are excited about the KORE initiative to bring others with similar interests and passions together to make our inspiring region a new hub for product innovation and development. Our product design studio is looking forward to contributing and collaborating with more outdoor creatives like ourselves.”

“We are excited to be a resource for the KORE initiative! We’ve been documenting the many talented Mountain Culture Innovators and Product Designers of the region for nearly two decades. To bring these people and businesses together in a KORE collective would be an incredible plus for our region.”
