Web Development shops across BC are invited by Business in Vancouver every year to appear on their Biggest Web-Development Companies in BC list. Over the past couple years we have republished the list here on Techvibes (2007 and 2008) and we're doing it again this year.
As usual, the list includes the Dev shops that everyone has heard of like Blast Radius and Habanero but also includes a bunch that are under the radar.
Note: The companies are ranked based on employees and, as you'll see, a few companies that don't provide web development services per se have got past the BIV fact-checkers again.

Just wanted to pass along my personal best wishes to all of BC's Web Development Shops. The competitive environment and supportive community that we are all a part of thrives because of it. That being said - E-Cubed is looking for the best talent the industry has to offer. If you have what it takes to impress us then please get in touch as we are always looking to hire. Bring your 'A' cuz we don't settle.
#3 Neverblue isn't a web dev shop. Infact, they have less than 10 IT people.
North Studio, an up and coming Drupal shop from Victoria (http://www.northstudio.com/) should also be on the list. They've got about 25 full timers on their team. Other Drupal shops that didn't make the list that should be mentioned: Affinity Bridge, Jibe Multimedia, Agentic and 80 Elements (however I'm not sure how many are in each of those companies).
And I should mention Raincity Studios also. Raincity and Bryght have been a big part of the Drupal scene in Vancouver and deserve recognition for their contributions.
Second DaBigCheese - credit to the digital community here in Vancouver, the tweeters, bloggers, gamers, developers and whomever else for the strength and depth in the industry here despite tough times. Here in Yaletown @FCV we've been charging hard all year - bring on 2010!
Great job everyone! WinBC and New Media BC recently called Vancouver "the digital media capital of Canada". I'm glad that so many companies are contributing to that recognition.

Netgenetix Media is a great web dev firm in town, flying under radar, 10+ folks doing great work for many years now. http://www.netgenetix.com/
Well done everyone… some of the most talented web firms in the world call BC home! If I could suggest one change, that this list be made up of pure web development firms and that a little more R&D is done to make sure quality shops are not missed. In Victoria only my firm was listed, when in fact Victoria has two other quality firms such as Atomic Crayon and Number 41, each with 10 plus staff. Dale and Charles can thank me later for the plugs.
These are all great companies for inspiration. Thanks for the list!
