Join the Chicago Booth Alumni Club of Chicago (CBAC) as we welcome three Booth alumni speakers to tell us about great restaurants and bar options to check out this summer. After the discussion you will have an opportunity to network with local alumni.
Event Details
This 60 minute event will be divided into two parts. The first 30 minutes will be spent highlighting our 3 speakers and their businesses in a panel format. You will be hearing from a CEO of a PE firm, a manager at DoorDash and the owner of one of the hottest restaurants in West Loop.
After the speakers share their stories, we will break into Zoom breakout rooms to have 30 minutes of networking with local Booth alumni.
