Published purpose

The Taproot Edmonton Calendar helps Edmontonians stay informed about events happening in and around the city. Our vision is to simplify discovery, making it easier for people to engage with everything our vibrant city has to offer. The Calendar launched in beta in December 2023, and now we are seeking support to improve its functionality and user experience, and to better understand and develop its monetization opportunities. A focus of the project is on implementing functionality for partners and potential customers, including event curation, and calendar distribution (feeds, embeds, etc.). This will support businesses and will grow our revenue, while reducing the fragmentation and lack of cohesion in the ecosystem.
