The Small Business Social - a Business networking series in Edmonton

Running a business can feel isolating sometimes, especially when you are carrying so much on your own. The Small Business Social was created to give small business owners a place to come together, meet like-minded people, and build genuine connections without the pressure that often comes with traditional networking events.

This evening is designed to feel more like a relaxed social gathering than a formal business function. It is for the business owner who wants to connect, chat, exchange ideas, and be in a room with other people who simply get it.

You do not need to have a polished pitch.
You do not need to be “good at networking.”
You do not need to arrive with an agenda.

You just need to come as you are.

The Small Business Social is all about creating a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere where conversations can happen naturally. Whether you are looking to meet potential collaborators, build local relationships, find encouragement, or simply get out and be around other entrepreneurs for an evening, this event gives you space to do exactly that.

We know that many business owners want connection, but not necessarily the kind that feels forced, awkward, or overly transactional. That is why this event is intentionally built to feel easy, approachable, and human.

Come grab a drink, settle in, meet some new people, and enjoy an evening designed with small business owners in mind.

The Small Business Social is for:

• Small business owners
• Entrepreneurs
• Home-based business owners
• Service providers
• Creatives
• Startups
• Side-hustlers
• Professionals who want to build stronger local connections

Whether you are brand new in business or have been doing this for years, you are welcome here.

At The Small Business Social, you can expect:

• A relaxed and welcoming atmosphere
• Casual conversation with other local business owners
• Opportunities to make genuine connections
• A space that feels approachable, not intimidating
• An easygoing evening focused on community and connection

There is no pressure and no need to perform. Just good people, good conversation, and a chance to connect with others in business.

Because business is easier when you are not doing it alone.

This event is about more than networking. It is about building relationships, finding your people, and creating opportunities through real connection. Sometimes one conversation can lead to a collaboration, a referral, a friendship, a fresh idea, or simply the reminder that you are not the only one figuring things out as you go.

If you have been wanting to meet more local business owners in a setting that feels warm, easy, and genuine, this is a great place to start.

This event has been intentionally made accessible to the business community, with attendance offered at no cost. We simply ask that you register in advance so we can plan thoughtfully for everyone joining us.
