Last week, we co-hosted an incredible We Are YEG party at The Calgary Stampede! This year, we brought together hundreds of people from Stampede to celebrate our city, even from afar. It was an incredible opportunity to network, enjoy delicious food and drinks, listen to country music, and partake in the Calgary Stampede festivities as a community. Thank you to all who joined us and to Explore Edmonton Corporation, Athabasca University, Edmonton Unlimited, Edmonton Global, MacEwan University, NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology), NorQuest College, University of Alberta, and Edmonton International Airport (YEG) for making this event possible.

The Government of Alberta has announced a $44 million investment to assist 21 small and medium businesses in reducing emissions and lowering energy costs. This funding, provided through Emissions Reduction Alberta's Emerging Innovators Challenge, will support innovative projects across sectors such as power generation, agriculture, forestry, and oil and gas. These projects aim to create jobs, improve competition, and reduce emissions. Some examples of the funded projects include a robotic AI-powered horticultural lighting system and a new satellite system designed to detect methane emissions. This initiative emphasizes Alberta's innovation leadership and commitment to supporting small businesses in driving economic growth. #Innovation #AlbertaEconomy #SmallBusiness https://shorturl.at/atPCW

"Believe!" And we did, until the very last moment. But why stop and wait until next year? The belief we had in the Oilers wasn't just about hockey, but about our city and ourselves. The Oilers simply reminded us of how amazing we are. But we can't stop believing now. Read Doug's full article about why he won't stop believing in Edmonton 🧡💙 https://lnkd.in/gwpFa-ZN
