Not sure if this is a good fit for you? Read more about Rainforest Alberta – yeg! \nAssessing Innovation in Edmonton\nDuring the summit\, attendees will analyze the state of innovation in Edmonton using the results of the Rainforest Scorecard.

Thank you so much for supporting the growth of innovation in Alberta by helping make the Summit a reality! \n \nWork Nicer is Alberta’s largest coworking community created on the foundation that no one succeeds alone. Community is more than a common space but a group of people who rally together to work through the struggles and celebrate the wins. What comes out of community is deeper connections\, cooler collaborations and higher innovation. \n \n\nAgenda\n\n8:30 Check-In\n8:50 Welcome\n9:00 Session #1 – Background and Context\n10:45 Session #2 – Rainforest Pillars\n12:30 Lunch\n13:00 Session #3 – The New Narrative\n15:00 Session #4 – Continuity\n16:30 Conclude
