What we’re about
Welcome to the Entrepreneurs of Calgary!
This group brings together driven, hard-working, and enthusiastic local entrepreneurs. We'll get together for fun social events, productive co-working sessions, and other exciting opportunities to bond over our shared passion for business 😊
Why I started this group.
Simply put, I haven’t usually enjoyed most of the business events I’ve attended in Calgary. This is because they did one, or multiple, of the following:
• Didn't have a consistent schedule
• Felt a little bit dull and stiff (at least for me)
• Required an expensive membership just to participate
• Focused too heavily on referrals. The vibe was often quite "salesy"
• Were low-effort, casual hangouts with no real energy driving the group
In short, they lacked a sense of community and passion.
What I would like, and what this group is about, is to regularly bring people together who are genuinely fired up about their current business or one they hope to start. If you light up when talking about your ideas, are fuelled by your goals, and have a clear vision you are eager to share with others, this group is for you!
A quick note: this is not a traditional networking or referral group.
We’re not here to pitch, exchange business cards, or pressure each other for referrals. Instead, this community is about creating a space for entrepreneurs can connect over shared purpose, work alongside each other, and support one another through the highs and lows of building something meaningful.
Can't wait to meet you at the next event!

A little bit about myself...
My name is Azren. Two of my big passions in life are business and languages, so in 2016 I put both together and started the Calgary Language Nerds! My team and I help adults to achieve fluency in another language typically within 1 year through personalized private lessons. I also organize free and low-cost social events for. local language learners in my language learning Meetup group. Prior to the Calgary Language Nerds, I ran a residential window cleaning franchise for a little over 5 years.
Aside from business, I'm interested in nutrition, fitness, and I am an avid traveler 😊
