The Assembly

The Assembly is an ecosystem-wide convening that brings together leaders, builders, creatives, technologists, entrepreneurs, and civic partners to shape Chicago’s technology-enabled future.

Rather than a traditional panel or networking event, The Assembly is designed as an open, multi-dimensional experience — where attendees move freely between conversations, creative activations, and connection points across sectors. The evening centers on coordination, visibility, and collaboration across Chicago’s civic, business, cultural, and innovation ecosystems.

Event highlights include:

• Town Hall conversations surfacing opportunities, needs, and pathways across industries and organizations

• Food, arts, and cultural activations throughout the space

• Free professional headshots for attendees
