Bevvies & Business – A Seriously Good Time!
Build connections, expand your network, learn and experience what the Bow Valley business community has to offer.
Bevvies & Businesses are in-person networking events that run monthly and are held the third week of each month from September to June. Whether its wine tasting, golf simulators, experiencing Arts & Culture or taking in the views from the bottom to the top of the mountain, Bevvies & Businesses are a favourite for new and existing Members alike.
Each Bevvies & Business is hosted by a different Chamber Member and themed with creative ways for you to network with your community while learning about local businesses and organizations.
Enjoy a variety of delicious food and drink while meeting and connecting with the Bow Valley business community.
But First, Coffee!
Coffee Connectors are a morning networking event that occurs on the second week of every month across the Bow Valley (except December, July & August). This is an intimate group of up to 20 guests. This is a great chance to highlight your business or collaborate with a coffee shop.
Start your work day off right by connecting with like minded business members. Gain business insight, a useful tip or two or simply meet new people in the community.
