Gabriela Favaron

I’m Gabriela, a Brazilian-born immigrant, engineer, and passionate cyclist who truly believes bikes have the power to bring people and communities together. Over the past decade, I’ve worked across Brazil, the U.S., Latin America, Europe, and Canada in renewable energy and sustainable transportation. Today, as Director of Infrastructure at 7Gen, I help build the infrastructure and transportation networks that support the medium and heavy-duty industry in Canada’s shift toward cleaner, greener mobility.

I’ve always loved getting involved with nonprofit groups like AIESEC and IEEE. Currently, I’m proud to be an active member of ElectroMobility Canada, Women in EV, and technical review groups in my professional space. I believe sustainable transportation is a complex puzzle best solved through collaboration across sectors like transportation, buildings, and micromobility. Supporting electric mobility and creating inclusive opportunities is close to my heart.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me gravel riding, bikepacking, or spending time with local bike shops and community cycling groups here in Vancouver. I’m excited about the chance to bring my experience and passion to HUB Cycling’s Board to help make cycling safer, more welcoming, and accessible to everyone.
