This signature ERIN event brings together founders, service providers, funders, and post-secondary partners from across the innovation ecosystem to make meaningful connections and accelerate growth.
Get To Know Day is not your average networking event—it's an energizing, interactive experience built for anyone invested in growing Edmonton's innovation ecosystem.
If you're an ERIN member and you've received this invitation, this day is for you. Whether you represent a post-secondary institution, a support organization, an innovation-driven company, or you're an entrepreneur/founder, your presence matters. Get To Know Day is designed to deepen the connections between the people and organizations that make up our ecosystem—and that means you.
Expect a day full of hands-on activities, live problem-solving with local companies, and real-time ecosystem mapping that brings clarity to who does what—and how we can support one another better. You'll also have the chance to film a short professional video about who you are and what you do—yours to use for your own promotional purposes, and a way for ERIN to spotlight our members across the ecosystem.
With engaging roundtables, ecosystem health check-ins using Rainforest principles, and insights from the MIT REAP program, you'll leave with new connections, fresh insights, and valuable takeaways. Let's build a stronger, more connected innovation community—together.
