In this episode, Brad Parry, the CEO of Calgary Economic Development, joins the show to talk about his role in the community, how OCIF is helping to accomplish some of our city’s big, audacious goals, and about the shift in storytelling that has led to more than just major global companies coming to Alberta. It’s led to our top talent building companies from the ground up.

Show Notes

Far from the one-trick-pony some may consider Calgary to be, Brad will help demonstrate just how innovative, competitive and collaborative Calgary is. From our glory days as a top energy producer, our workforce has the capital and the know-how to get things done. Our city is working hard to transform its global reputation with thoughtful storytelling and brand architecture to continue to support and drive the entrepreneurs that make Calgary the best place in the world to own and operate a business.
