Monthly message from Adam Legge, CEO of the Calgary Chamber
I believe in the greatness of Calgary’s companies. I believe they can do great things. And they are located in the best city to live and work in the world. It is that belief that drives us at the Calgary Chamber.
Last year we worked with our members and staff to determine how we could build a better Chamber. I came away continually heartened by the people who expressed their support, willingness to be part of the process and wishes for a strong and vibrant Chamber.
In the end, it is clear we must deliver value and meaning to our members. And we are moving decisively in that direction. Yesterday we outlined how we will accomplish that goal during our Annual General Meeting.
Learn more about the new direction of the Calgary Chamber, as well as the programs and services we will be introducing throughout 2012 to better serve your business needs.

Tom Wright, director of Canadian operations for the UFC, outlined to the Calgary Chamber on April 25 some of the reasons why his company has grown over the past ten years to become one of the world’s most innovative sports leagues.
