ABOUT: Community Connect A monthly networking lunch hosted by Platform Calgary — designed to bring together the people 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.
