About us
The Economic Club of Chicago (ECC) fosters meaningful connections among Chicago leaders to encourage dialogue on important economic and social issues and to cultivate the next generation of civic leadership. Founded in 1927, the ECC has evolved from its roots as a forum for Chicago’s business community into a premier institution that provides intellectually curious members of the business world a platform to discuss economic, business and social issues. The ECC does not take an activist role. Rather, by providing a forum for discussion and debate, the ECC advances the development of civic-minded executives who understand and embrace their role in building a better society.

I had the honor of joining The Economic Club of Chicago in 2006. My very first Fifth Night celebration was held at the Field Museum and featured the exhibit "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" which brought over 130 Egyptian treasures back to The Field Museum. The 2024 Fifth Night celebration was held at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Thank you so much for joining me as my guests, Cori McKeever and Alana Widdess. And, a treat as always to catch up with Christy Uchida and David Ryan pictured here. #artsandculture #investinart

It is such a pleasure for Joy Baer and me to continue with the #ECC “New Members Meet and Greet” member exchange series, and last evening was another fun gathering at the #TheChicagoClub. We all got to know a little more about each other, and also shared our experiences and tips for member engagement with The Economic Club of Chicago. ECC member exchanges truly provide an excellent platform for intimate discussions and fostering new connections. Some of us even stayed back to enjoy the stunning Chicago skyline from the terrace, making it a perfect kick-off to the summer!
