    Executive convening

    Rooms I have built

    A room is a delivery mechanism. The product is what comes out of it: the relationship, the partnership, the project that finally moves. These are the gatherings I have founded, produced or hosted, and what each was designed to do.

    Gatherings

    Future Summit Stampede Party

    Calgary Petroleum Club · Stampede week

    Host

    A Stampede-week gathering of executives, founders, investors and public leaders, composed so the people who need to meet actually do.

    YYC DataCon

    Calgary · 2025 edition

    Organizing leadership and on-stage host

    Calgary's data and AI conference. My part was strategy, community development and production: recruiting credible speakers, building cross-sector partnerships and designing an agenda senior people would clear a day for.

    Formats I design and run

    Energy and AI infrastructure gatherings

    Generation, grid, data-centre developers and capital in the same room while projects are still shapeable.

    Executive dinners

    Small, deliberately composed tables. Fewer people, longer conversations, and a reason for each person to be there.

    Government and industry roundtables

    Working sessions with companies, investors and public bodies on project visibility and what is actually blocking execution.

    International delegations

    Trade and investment relationships structured so value returns to the home market rather than leaving it.

    Need a room like this built?

    Tell me who needs to be in it and what has to come out of it. Convening is one of the five services.
