Rogers Business: Empowering and connecting Calgary’s small business community

Rogers Business, the Calgary Chamber’s Small Business Pillar Partner, is dedicated to supporting small and medium businesses (SMBs) across Canada, recognizing their critical role in our economy. By offering innovative technology solutions and customized resources, Rogers Business is committed to empowering entrepreneurs to reach their fullest potential and to foster growth and innovation within local communities in Alberta.

A focus on small businesses

Nick Hurley, VP of National Small and Medium Business Sales at Rogers Business, has dedicated over 17 years to the sector and is a passionate advocate for small businesses..

“Small businesses are incredibly important, both to the local economy and to us,” said Nick Hurley. “We’ve been driving innovation in the telecom space for the SMB segment and we have amazing technologies available for our small business customers that have traditionally only been available for large enterprises with dedicated IT teams.”

“Delivering differentiated enterprise-grade services to small and medium-sized businesses is critical for them to remain competitive in their markets,” said Nick.

Building local partnerships

Rogers Business' partnership with the Calgary Chamber as our Small Business Pillar Partner further demonstrates their commitment to Calgary’s local small business community.

“We want our clients to know that we are dedicated to serving them now and into the future,” said Nick.

This collaboration with the Calgary Chamber is set to bring enhanced support, resources and opportunities for small businesses throughout Calgary. It is also expected to significantly bolster initiatives aimed at showcasing and nurturing Calgary’s diverse small business community.

Supporting Small Business Week

Rogers Business will also play a key role in supporting the Calgary Chamber’s Small Business Week, taking place October 21-25. Small Business Week highlights Calgary’s small business community through impactful panel discussions, networking opportunities and award recognition that celebrate local entrepreneurial achievements. Nick explains that events like these have the power to foster an environment where small businesses are not only supported but can continue to thrive.

“Continuing the legacy of Canadian entrepreneurs Ted Rogers and JR Shaw, we are committed to supporting and empowering SMB’s in Calgary as they continue to grow,” he says.

In addition to Small Business Week, Rogers Business will also support the Chamber's upcoming Business After Hours events. These gatherings provide unique networking experiences hosted at member locations across Calgary.

Through this partnership with the Calgary Chamber and initiatives like Small Business Week, Rogers Business is taking meaningful steps to support the entrepreneurial spirit that fuels Calgary’s economy.
