The success of your business is dependent in large part on the various professional relationships that you establish with others in the community. These relationships can be used for everything from giving you insight about changing marketing conditions to fortifying business alliances and positioning your company for growth and success. One of the best ways to expand your professional network of contacts in Edmonton is to attend some of the many networking events that are planned in the area throughout the year. As you look forward to your calendar for March, you may consider making plans to attend one or several of these exciting professional events.

Taste of the Chamber

On March 10, the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce hosts the Taste of the Chamber event at the Jubilee Auditorium. The Taste of the Chamber event gives you the opportunity to meet dozens or even hundreds of other professionals in the community from different industries and sectors.
