Thank you so much for another well run, amazing and fun meeting. So love the women there. It really is magic how we all connect and have fun together. Never seen anything like it and I enjoy it so much.

One of the reasons that I love CBWN is because it connects entrepreneurial women but not just for business purposes. I believe that women love supporting other women and CBWN gives us the venue and platform to do just that. Meaningful relationships are formed when you are least expecting it. Quite often you are adding to your community of engaging and successful business women but also making a new friend in the process. The meeting today was a testament to that – thank you Ilona and Debbie.

Biz Bang– I loved this event and the conversion I’m seeing. The format is definitely the most valuable way for me to share, connect and showcase my work. This was the best networking event I’ve been to because of the format. I really liked the speakers in the morning & targeted networking after lunch.

I would like to say THANK YOU to the both of you. What you have done for me is incredible and much appreciated. You ladies have the biggest heart and always want to help others. I have enjoyed going to every single meetings with all of you and I have learned so much and met so many wonderful women who have helped me grow and get through this tough time in my life. You have created a wonderful circle of women.

I am enjoying being a new member of CBWN. The networking meetings are likely one of the best I’ve attended. The reason is that the lunch meeting format ensures that you are up to date on what is happening with the group and that there is ample time to meet people in a meaningful way. The table talk questions help everyone mingle and get to know each other. Ilona and Debbie work well together and facilitate a lighthearted but meaningful event. I enjoy that the event speakers educate the group and that the participants can partake in promoting their offers and services through the showcase tables. Excellent work, CBWN!

It was great to (briefly) meet you and to become a loyalty member.
I enjoyed it all, your platform, your speakers, your ease, sincerity and humour. I am excited to become part of the “community”, to develop relationships with such a dynamic group of women! I had a wonderful chat with Nicki and we are meeting up next Wednesday to learn further about each other. As well as a couple other women. Love it!

I have been to many networking events and I must say that CBWN is the best one yet! I have met so many amazing, heartfelt women who want to genuinely connect and support each others business and personal growth. I truly look forward to attending every month. Thank you Debbie and Ilona for your fantastic work and vision.

It’s my pleasure – you ladies have really worked hard to put together an “abundance mindset” networking group. The energy and environment is brilliant for supporting, nurturing and assisting women in business. The core group of ladies in the group really and truly want to see other business women succeed. From my experience that’s actually quite rare in networking circles.

A wonderful experience as always. Friendly, supportive women, experienced and new business women, and talented hosts!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the organizers, I had a great time! The experience exceeded my expectations and I felt like a received a lot of valuable information and support from the presenters and other ladies in the room. Being a (younger) entrepreneur, I have found it quite difficult to come into contact with supportive mentors in everyday life, especially women of all backgrounds. I am looking forward to the next dinner event and hopefully a luncheon!

This was my first time attending this luncheon and it was so great to receive such a warm welcome. Ilona & Debbie are such real genuine ladies. And they both have a great sense of humour. The ladies I met were wonderful as well. I will be back!

What an honor it was to be in a room filled with women wanting to make a difference in the world. I experienced many beautiful connections and I look forward to many more in the future. Thanks Debbie and Ilona for holding the space and the vision for women supporting women.

CBWN is the most heart-centred and well-organized networking group I’ve found in Calgary. And I tried out many groups! At CBWN I’ve had the chance to polish my public speaking skills in a super supportive environment. I have also made valuable contacts and budding friendships. If you care about people and your business, try CBWN!

What a fabulous luncheon with so many brilliant women. Ilona and Debbie are so professional and at the same time have a fantastic sense of humour. Love the energy and flow and I must say the vegetarian dishes are the best I have ever had. Thank you for shining your light ladies.

I have been part of Calgary Business Women’s Network from the beginning and I look forward to this meeting every month firstly to reconnect with those ladies in business that I have already met and also to meet ladies and learn about their business who are coming for the first time. What I love most about this group is how receptive everyone is to helping each other move their businesses forward.
