Edmonton Ambassador Network
How Do You Empower Edmonton?
The greatness of a city is measured by the greatness of its people. As proud promoters of Edmonton, we recognize the vital contributions of Edmontonians to our city’s success. A select group of passionate individuals—our Edmonton Ambassadors—make our city shine even brighter.
The Edmonton Ambassador Network connects experts with like-minded individuals, fostering valuable relationships and collaborations and serving as a forum for networking and learning in cutting edge domains of excellence.
These events have a profound impact on the local ecosystem, extending beyond economic and social benefits to create a lasting legacy in the scientific and industrial communities. The Edmonton Ambassador Network aims to promote these meetings and their advantages, helping to position Edmonton prominently in key sectors and beyond. While some Ambassadors have experience convening their peers, others are just starting. Explore Edmonton is here to support anyone looking to make Edmonton the destination for their meetings.
