2023 VICA Awards
The Vancouver Island Construction Association is pleased to announce the 4th Annual VICA Awards.
This one-of-a-kind industry event will formally recognize the work VICA members do across Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, and coastal British Columbia.
The VICA Awards are Vancouver Island’s premier construction industry awards, attended and viewed by key players of the ICI and multi-residential construction sector, as well as the larger Vancouver Island Community.
Congratulations to our 2023 VICA Award Winners. The winners were announced at VICA’s 2023 Vancouver Island Construction Conference, in conjunction with BCCA’s Construction Month. We thank all who submitted for an award and look forward to celebrating another year of achievement in 2024.
