SPARK Alberta Advisors
SPARK Alberta advisors volunteer their time to provide advice and direction for our SPARK teams at tri-monthly project presentations. All our industry advisors participate in SPARK as individuals, rather than official representatives of their companies. Our industry advisor group is a critical component of the program and we are grateful for every advisor’s contribution, no matter how big or small. If you are interested in becoming a SPARK advisor, contact us at spark@ucalgary.ca.
