Chicago will welcome leaders in civic, business, cultural and academic from May 27-29 for the first ever Chicago Forum on Global Cities. The Chicago Forum on Global Cities, hosted by The Chicago Council on Global Affairs and the Financial Times, will kickoff May 27 with the program Global Cities Driving the Global Economy. Panelists such as Former Secretary of State Madeline Albright,Ajay Banga, President and CEO, MasterCard, Frank Gehry, Founding Partner, Gehry Partners, Pop artist Romero Britto, University of Chicago President Robert J. Zimmer and many more will be a part of the three day conversation.
Chicago Forum on Global Cities will bring together global city leaders of the four pillars vital to urban life-business, education, arts and culture, civics—for a multidisciplinary discussion on how they can collaborate to make their cities more economically vital, socially inclusive, and environmentally livable.
Unfortunately participation in the three-day Chicago Forum is by invitation-only but it will be live streamed so even if you can’t hear former US Treasurer Hank Paulson, Chairman and CEO of Motorola Solutions Greg Brown, Chicago Department of Family & Support Services Commissioner Evelyn J. Diaz, speak live, you can still catch the action. LIVESTREAM HERE
The future of global cities will be defined by the mayors and maestros, the scholars and CEOs, who will attend and participate in this unique global forum in a unique global city.
