It was a busy week in Chicago as the NBA All-Star festivities came to town. Events were scattered across the city as we had the opportunity to meet and connect with many in the sports business community.
We also hosted our own Happy Hour in honor All-Star week and had a strong turnout despite the snow storm! If you were not able to make it, we hope you will consider joining us next month for our Suburban Chicago Happy Hour at Five Seasons Sports Club in Northbrook!
