Hello!

My name is Simon Vallee. I’m a technology entrepreneur based in Vancouver, Canada. Welcome to my internet home.

I grew up in Montreal, but spent close to 10 years in San Francisco (along with a few stints in Black Rock City) before settling down in beautiful Vancouver.

I’ve been fortunate enough to exit three startups. I was co-founder and CEO at Flight (acquired by Figma), Spaces (acquired by Slack), and OpenCal (acquired by Groupon).

More recently, I joined Maket as Co-Founder and CPO. We’re using AI to democratize architecture and bring good design to every home. Big things coming!

I hold a degree in materials engineering from Polytechnique of Montreal, and started my career working with industrial gases at Air Liquide before making the jump to tech.

I’m a proud father of two and husband to my closest friend and advisor, Karina Louise. Together we live a charmed life. I do my best to take it all in and pay it forward.
