RedPoint Media Group

Connecting Calgarians through storytelling is our mission and there is probably no better example of that work than our annual Avenue Calgary Magazine Top 40 Under 40 list. Today we announce the Top 40 Class of 2024 and celebrate not only their accomplishments but the city that makes these successes possible.

Cheers! Congratulations to all the winners and finalists of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce Small Business Awards! We are honoured to have been a finalist for the Air Canada Community Champion Award and shortlisted for the CPHR Alberta People's Choice Award. While we were not named the recipient of the awards, it was an honour to stand next to so many incredible local companies. We are inspired by the work our fellow small businesses are doing and admire the companies that make Calgary such a great place. "We are so proud to be part of the Chamber and to have the opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of the small businesses that won all of the awards presented at the Calgary Chamber of Commerce Small Business Awards. Although we didn't win, it truly is an honour to have been shortlisted among so many amazing companies,” says company president and co-owner, K?the Lemon. “The support for small businesses and entrepreneurs in the room was incredibly inspiring. As the Chamber slogan says 'We're better together.' And as still relatively new owners of RedPoint Media Group, Roger Jewett and I are excited to lead the next chapter for the company." Congratulations to all the winners and finalists!

Join us on October 30 to celebrate the Avenue Top 40 Under 40 Class of 2024! Tickets are on sale now at https://lnkd.in/gm9_vh49

One of the things that makes a city liveable and resilient is strong interconnections between citizens across a number of communities, industries and interests. Our work connects Calgarians. Through trusted storytelling, both in our own brands like Avenue Calgary Magazine as well as the work we do with groups including Alberta Cancer Foundation, Calgary Foundation, Calgary Health Foundation, Calgary Arts Development, Village Brewery and more, we engage Calgarians in the discussions about what is already great in this city, and the things we need to do to ensure that this truly is a place of opportunity and optimism for all! We were thrilled that our president, K?the Lemon, had a chance to talk about our work and her boundless optimism with Calgary Economic Development for their Bright Leaders series. Check it out!

Thank you to the Calgary Chamber of Commerce who truly helps make their mission reality, by connecting Calgary's business community and making us better together. The Chamber is all about connecting — just like RedPoint, which is why we were so thrilled to sponsor their Stampede event. Thank you Chamber team — Deborah Yedlin, Melanie McDonald, Nicole Claiter — for another fantastic event!

So inspired by The Art Of Women event today featuring Avenue Calgary Magazine #top40yyc alumn Zahra AlHarazi-Schmidt, Dr. Roberta Bondar, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, Denise Hamilton, and Mary Murphy! Some take aways: Change happens through excellence! Release a culture of genius and embrace a culture of growth! Success and change takes hunger, grit, purpose, gratitude and FUN! You need confidence and competence! Addiction stems from a need for connection that wasn’t fulfilled. Thank you to Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP for sponsoring this great event and to our team of inspiring women who joined us!

Connecting with community and pursuing your purpose were the main themes we heard at the FIPP Congress this year! Can't wait until FIPP 2025 in Madrid to connect with our publishing peers from around the world.
