Platform Innovation Centre
CALGARY’S HOME FOR INNOVATORS
Behind every great innovator is a great community. The Platform Innovation Centre is the front door to the innovation community — a single point of access to resources, supports, programming and events to help startups successfully launch and grow their business.
Located in the heart of Calgary’s East Village neighbourhood — beside City Hall, Central Library, and Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre — the Platform Innovation Centre will help create connections for local innovators, driving new economic growth and job creation in Calgary.
We're excited to show you around! We're offering tours of the building on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 1 - 2 PM. Please RSVP to let us know you're coming.
