The STRIVE Young Professionals Group is hosting a networking social on April 9, 2026, to help emerging leaders in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, build local business connections. The event, called STRIVE at Five, aims to provide a space for entrepreneurs and professionals to share ideas and grow their networks within the city.

The gathering will take place from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at The Speakeasy, located at Algoma University. This session is part of a regular series organized by the group, which serves as an official subcommittee of the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce.

The event is specifically designed for people between the ages of 19 and 39 who are working or living in the Algoma District. It is free to attend for both current members and those interested in joining the group to learn more about how to get involved in the local business community.

Organizers say these meetings help bridge the gap between university life and the local workforce. Those interested in attending the session at the Speakeasy at Algoma University are required to register in advance to help the hosts manage the number of guests.
