The focus.
1. We elevate Calgary tech by providing core
infrastructure, supporting aligned partners,
building community and sharing the story.
2. Help startups advance through our
connected hubs of excellence for
founders, investors, talent and industry.
The approach.
Welcome Everyone - actively engage and empower people from underserved populations and with diverse backgrounds and abilities.
Collaborate like nowhere else - set ambitious shared targets and build a city-wide culture based on trust and giving back (and don’t worry about who gets the credit).
Make resources easy to access - create frictionless pathways for founders, investors, talent and enterprises to get connected and supported.
Don’t settle for anything but the best - benchmark and invest to make every aspect of the Calgary ecosystem globally competitive and connected to leading partners and regions.
Tell the story - build momentum and elevate successes through powerful communication channels, inspiring events and intelligent advocacy.
Be relentless - play the long game, patiently focusing on the things that matter most to founders, trying again and again and again when faced with obstacles.
