Calgary is now home to the fastest-growing tech sector in North America—a fact many in our own backyard are only just beginning to realize. We’re channeling that energy into a single, high-wattage afternoon at the National Saloon Tent—a signature event designed to show our collective teams, partners, and the broader city exactly what this community is made of. Whether you’re honoring your team of builders, welcoming international guests, or introducing new collaborators to the heart of the YYC tech scene, expect live music, electric energy, and the kind of connections that only happen in the heat of July. Let’s show the city—and the world—how Calgary tech hosts its own.

A monthly networking lunch hosted by Platform Calgary — featuring the founders and companies building Calgary’s tech ecosystem. Originally created for Platform member companies to learn from one another, it has grown into a space where founders, program alumni, coaches, and partners come together to share insights, celebrate wins, and support each other’s growth. Whether you're part of the Calgary tech sector or just getting curious, we invite a limited number of non-members to join us, meet the community, and experience the momentum for yourself.
