The most important industry conversations don't start when the conference opens. They start the night before. 

Ascend kicks off with an evening worth showing up for on its own: a reception to reconnect with peers and partners, a sit-down dinner, and an awards ceremony recognizing the Alberta hotels leading the way on HR, workforce development, and employee health & safety through the Elevate Approved Employer program. After the awards, the evening opens back up with dessert and the conversations that carry into the next morning. 

This evening celebrates the strength of Alberta's hotel industry. You won't want to miss it.
