What an unforgettable night! There was incredible energy at our very first Exmerce Fireside event in Edmonton. After 21 years of serving the Calgary business community, expanding our B2B barter network to Edmonton is a major milestone, and this monumental fireside just proved that the local entrepreneurial spirit is stronger than ever.
The evening was a massive success, hosted at the stunning Edmonton Unlimited. We owe a huge thank you to Jose and the entire team at Edmonton Unlimited for their seamless coordination and for providing such an inspiring space for our community to gather.
Knowledge, Connection, and Community
Led by Crystal Holberton, our Regional Director for Alberta North, the heart of the evening was a powerhouse panel discussion focused on building community. A sincere thank you to our panelists for sharing their wisdom:
- Dorothy Briggs – Womanition Inc.
- Cliff Turner – ATB Financial
- Trystan Keller – Messed Up Mondays
- Matt Hill – Business Link Alberta
Special Thanks to Our Partners
This event wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our exhibitors and local partners, including the Better Business Bureau (BBB) Alberta and East Kootenay.
We also want to highlight the extra touches that made the night memorable: Carrie Anne Doucette for bringing the photo booth fun, and Mahsa Tabibian for the thoughtful surprise for Crystal!
Stronger Together
The theme of the night was clear: when entrepreneurs come together with a willingness to learn and help one another, the entire community becomes stronger. We saw incredible connections made between talented business owners, and we are so excited to continue building these relationships in Edmonton.
