What is Lo-cal?
LO-CAL Networking Inc. is a community-driven platform founded in Edmonton, Alberta, dedicated to creating meaningful, face-to-face connections for emerging professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives and local businesses. LO-CAL began with a simple idea: that networking could be more than business cards and awkward small talk. At our core, we believe real connections build stronger communities and that starts here, locally.
Our Vision
To become Canada's go-to hub for networking, where local communities are strengthened through collaboration, mentorship and opportunity.
Our Values
- •Authenticity: We believe real connections come from honesty, openness and being yourself.
- •Inclusivity: Everyone deserves a seat at the table, regardless of background, industry, or experience.
- •Collaboration: Growth happens when people share knowledge, resources and opportunities.
- •Community: Strong local ties are the foundation for impact that scales.
- •Innovation: We're rethinking what networking can look like in a digital-first, human-centered world.
