Signature Event
Small Business Week
This full week is dedicated to Calgary’s small- and medium-sized businesses that make up more than 95 percent of our city’s business community. Throughout the week, we partner with thought leaders to deliver impactful, content-driven events that address challenges and spark ideas, provide support and resources from experts in all fields and create connection opportunities to grow your network. We host Small Business Week to bring the entire business community together, to learn from—and celebrate with—one another.
