Being a part of EDGE allows you to talk to people in similar situations to yours and share ideas about building a strong client base.

EDGE aims to create an inclusive, diverse and safe space for members to ask questions, learn about other professions and refer business to people they trust. We strive to give young individuals the greatest odds to build a referral business by creating a community of motivated, passionate and hard working young professionals.
Every member is treated with kindness and respect. EDGE is a safe space to be yourself and grow as a professional.
Members are required to conduct themselves in a professional manner, and always stay accountable for their actions.
Members facilitate optimistic and positive energy in every meeting. Everyone does their part to keep meetings fun and engaging.
The more comfortable members are around one another, the more confident they'll feel voicing opinions, brainstorming, and going along with new ideas. Having a strong connection and trust will also help you to develop your career, opening up opportunities that otherwise might pass you by.
It is vital that members remain honest in order to create a culture built on trust. This includes representing your profession and self with integrity. As members, we want to refer to high-quality young professionals. Members must follow a high moral code.
Every person’s voice matters. All members should feel welcomed and safe at any Edge event. We believe this is only possible in an environment built on dignity and mutual respect.
I decided to join networking groups to create new connections and grow my business. Shortly after joining I realized these groups had 100s of individuals and many in the same profession as my own. I found it difficult to develop meaningful connections. I founded EDGE to give young professionals an alternative to traditional networking where others can build meaningful relationships that lead to trust and referrals.
