The Private Exchange: The Founders Edition – Celebrating 30 Years
On Thursday, October 29, 2026, The Private Exchange gathered in Calgary for a special Founder’s Edition marking 30 years since host Danijel Slisko started his first business. Most of those years were spent building Danijel & Co., a group of companies whose recent focus is Cerco Creative Marketing and Brand Magazine, all resting on one belief: business is a team sport.
The evening was a thank-you to the clients, partners, friends, and fellow entrepreneurs who have been part of that journey, and a chance to raise a glass to what comes next.
Host: Danijel Slisko (Cerco Creative Marketing). Co-hosts: Teresa Spinelli (Italian Centre Shop), Nick Thompson (The Astra Group Inc.), and Lisa Handfield (The Calgary Legal Team).
True to The Private Exchange format, the night combined real conversation, fresh perspectives, and “sip + socialize” networking in a solicitation-free room: no pitches, just genuine connection.
Thank you to our sponsors, our co-hosts, and everyone who came out to celebrate with us.
