With a vast network of legacy CPG brands and a dynamic urban food scene right in their backyard, entrepreneurs, food start-ups, and emerging food brands have a unique and innovative opportunity when they call Chicago home! Join us on Thursday (August 20th) for an interactive virtual event that takes a deep dive into the shared spaces and collaborative food community that defines the Chicago start-up scene. We are excited to welcome representatives from some of the city’s most innovative food work-spaces to discuss what makes their space unique and for whom each space is a best fit. This is a conversation not to be missed for anyone looking to start-up, expand, or grow a food business in Chicagoland.
