PRESS RELEASE: CALGARY – January 18, 2023
inqli, Alberta’s first knowledge-sharing platform that promotes the democratization of professional networks, is announcing the partnership and launch of their pilot with Rainforest Alberta, a community hub for innovation in Alberta.
If you haven't joined the inqli Rainforest pilot yet, sign up here.
The partnership with Rainforest Alberta will help inqli in achieving its goal of unifying Alberta’s innovation community. Through this partnership, inqli remains laser-focused on leveling the playing field within Alberta’s technology and innovation space.
The new pilot program will be mutually beneficial, as inqli can showcase the immense potential of the platform to inspire individuals who were previously excluded from the Alberta innovation community. inqli will provide Rainforest Alberta with the full capabilities of its social app, allowing the innovation community to benefit from the variety of perspectives that are shared within the inqli platform.
“Today’s announcement provides an exciting look for the future of Alberta’s innovation space and helps us scale up the capacity and user base of the platform” said Rebecca Resch, Founder and CEO of inqli. “This partnership reinforces our commitment to supporting individuals who are traditionally left out of the innovation space to share their perspective and access opportunities.”
inqli: A business focused on transforming Alberta’s tech scene
inqli’s innovative networking platform relies on the notion that we all have knowledge and experience that can help others get where they are going next - all you have to do is ask. Alberta’s innovation community is growing but needs a centralized platform for starting these conversations and sharing knowledge.
“Central to inqli’s cause is the removal of traditional barriers to entry that we see in the technology space” said James Lochrie, inqli investor, Managing Partner of Thin Air Labs, and Co-founder of Wave Accounting Inc. “Some of the best ideas come from the collaboration of individuals who have different experiences. inqli not only connects Alberta’s innovation community, but it opens doors to people who have great ideas, but don’t always get a seat at the table.”
As Alberta’s tech scene continues to grow, individuals are feeling the strain of a community that has grown to the point that it can be confusing to navigate. This has resulted in community demand for equitable and centralized access to knowledge, resources, and opportunities.
“Rainforest has always promoted the importance that diversity plays in accelerating innovation in our province. inqli's software allows for these diverse perspectives to come together in a more accessible way,” said Brad Zumwalt, Rainforest Alberta Co-Founder.
“It’s increasingly important that we have a space for innovators to collaborate and share their knowledge as we grow Alberta’s tech scene,” said Kirstein Resch. “Our goal is to help individuals and companies collaborate in a way that leads to diverse connections, meaningful change and innovation.”
