Shared Values: Inclusivity and Community Building

 

At Dine Find, we deeply value inclusivity and community building. The Flavours & Finds Summer Market was created to bring people together around local makers, small businesses, and food creators who celebrate diversity and accessibility.

 

Partnering with Calgary Economic Development is a natural alignment. Both of our organizations are committed to supporting Calgary’s unique ecosystem of entrepreneurs, celebrating local talent, and investing in a future where businesses and communities thrive together.

Exciting Market Giveaways

 

As part of this partnership, visitors at the Flavours & Finds Summer Market will have the chance to take home free product giveaways from alumni companies of CED’s Trade Accelerator Program (TAP).

 

The TAP program is an innovative 4-session initiative designed to accelerate the growth of businesses and help them prepare for expansion into international markets. Alumni from this program represent some of Calgary’s most forward-thinking and globally minded entrepreneurs, and we’re excited to showcase their products to market attendees.
