What we’re about
When you’re talking about innovation in Edmonton, the potential is endless. From the sticky problems we solve to the brilliant people who solve them, this has always been a place that sees opportunity instead of barriers, that supports and encourages one another, and a place where people come to do big things – because they can. Edmonton Unlimited is all about harnessing the power of possibility and bringing the best of Edmonton to the world. It is welcoming, inclusive and unconstrained by traditional definitions of innovation, business or entrepreneurship. Learn more at [EdmontonUnlimited.com](https://edmontonunlimited.com/).
A HUGE thank you to all of the incredible volunteer organizers that give of their time and expertise to present meetups every month.
