About us
Linked Local
Discover Our Story
LinkedIn Local began in 2017 as a worldwide movement to turn digital networks into real relationships. In 2025, we brought this mission to Calgary—a city teeming with innovators yet hungry for meaningful collaboration. Today, we’re proud to host events where professionals don’t just swap business cards—they build partnerships.
First Event Success
When Alish launched our chapter, the demand was undeniable: our debut event sold out in under two weeks, drawing 150+ executives, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers from Alberta’s thriving business community. It’s proof that Calgary craves meaningful, in-person collaboration—not just another Zoom call.
Organizer Experience
Alish Sh. doesn’t just organize events—he builds experiences. With a track record of crafting forums featured in top-tier press and attended by Fortune 500 leaders, he brings global expertise to Calgary’s doorstep. His vision? A city where professionals don’t just exchange LinkedIn invites—they spark partnerships, ideas, and lasting growth.
Our Mission
We’re not just hosting events—we’re shaping a community. From sold-out launches to partnerships with Alberta’s brightest minds, we’re here to ensure Calgary’s professionals thrive offline as much as they do online.
