YEG Amplification Foundation unites our city to showcase Edmonton's ambition, momentum, and success to Edmontonians, Canadians, and the world.
Edmonton's remarkable achievements and vibrant community deserve greater recognition. From groundbreaking research at our universities to thriving arts scenes and entrepreneurial success stories, our city is brimming with potential that often goes unnoticed on the national stage.
Edmonton needs somebody to unapologetically brag for the city. Enter: YEG Amplification Foundation.
Through strategic partnerships, compelling content creation, and coordinated amplification efforts, we're changing the narrative about Edmonton and ensuring our city's voice is heard loud and clear in conversations about Canada's future.
Edmonton is often seen as just a quiet government town or oil & gas hub. This limited view misses what's truly happening in our backyard.
The Hidden Reality
Edmonton's home to world-class businesses, multi-billion dollar projects, globally competitive universities, and some of the smartest and hardest working people in the world.
We just don't like talking about things that aren't done yet (and nothing's ever done).
Our Solution
Bridge this gap through strategic media partnerships and unified storytelling that amplifies Edmonton's real narrative.
We want people seeking and sharing the cool stories that we know exist in Edmonton to improve the community both professionally and personally.
The Plan to Amplify YEG
Project 1: Tech in the Spotlight
Partnering with BetaKit to embed reporters in Edmonton and tell our stories to the national tech scene.
Project 2: Broader Business Buzz
Targeting traditional business media outlets to showcase stories across sectors: construction to logistics to life sciences.
