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).

These days, I’m most passionate about wellness and the environment, and hope to gear up for a new venture in the near future.

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