Calgary Entrepreneurs Community — Speed Connecting Night

Real conversations. No pitching. Zero awkwardness.

Let’s be honest—most networking events feel like a sales floor disguised as small talk.
This is not that.

This is speed connecting, designed for entrepreneurs who actually want to find their community — the people you'll call the next time you need to vent about a client, or just need to show someone the new website you launched.

You’re not here to pitch.
You’re not here to collect business cards like Pokémon.
You’re here to have real, meaningful conversations with like-minded entrepreneurs.

To have people to celebrate small wins with.
To have someone to bounce off your moments of doubt with.
To share your “is it just me?” moments.

Because entrepreneurship can be lonely—and it doesn’t have to be.

💬 Guided conversations – You’ll get thoughtful prompts for each connection, so you’ll never sit there wondering “uh… so what do you do?”

🧠 Connection over performance – No pressure to sell, impress, or prove anything.

🌱 Introvert-friendly – Structured, supportive, and designed to take the awkwardness out of meeting new people.

❤️ Community-first energy – This is about building friendships, not funnels.

• Entrepreneurs craving deeper connections, not surface-level chats
• Business owners who want friends who understand this life
• Anyone who believes community is a growth strategy (and a sanity saver)

1. You'll be paired to connect with someone
2. You'll be given a prompt to spark the conversation
3. You'll have 5 minutes to connect with this person
4. After 5 minutes, you'll move and connect with someone else.

After the event, you'll get everyone's details so you can decide who you want to stay connected with.

• New connections that hopefully turn into lifelong friendships
• Conversations that energize you instead of draining you
• A reminder that you’re not doing this alone

And for the introverts — don’t worry, we gotchu the whole way through. 😉
