Have you see Calgary Economic Development’s Live Tech. Love Life campaign?
The economic development agency launched a campaign to attract tech talent to the prairie city and its working.
To inspire tech professionals to consider Calgary as a place to do meaningful work and have an unmatched quality of life, the campaign draws a parallel between working in tech and Calgary’s lifestyle.
With more than 2,000 open tech jobs in Calgary, growing the tech community is a need that has been reinforced by local companies of all sizes – they require the right talent to grow their businesses.
Later this month Alberta will be well-represented at our Tech Talent Canada virtual job fair with more than 20 companies that call Calgary home participating.
Among the hiring companies at the event are a handful that have been making headlines for Canada’s Stampede city.
Hometown unicorn Shareworks by Morgan Stanley (formerly known as Solium) will be there. Solium was valued at $1.1 billion when it was acquired by Morgan Stanley in 2019.
Everyone’s favorite food delivery service SkipTheDishes will be online along with Harvest Builders, a prairie venture builder that was created by two of SKIP’s co-founders.
