Roots | Chicago

​Chicago has always been a city that builds real things. The talent, the capital, and the companies are here. What's missing is a room where all of it connects.

​Redbud VC and SNAK Venture Partners are bringing together Chicago's founders, operators, investors, and corporate leaders for an evening built around real conversation and warm introductions. No decks. No panels. Just the people who are actually building the next chapter of the Midwest in one place.

​This event is especially for the founders and future builders reimagining legacy industries — the sectors that have long defined Chicago and where some of the biggest opportunities still exist. Chicago has always known how to build enduring businesses, and the next generation of innovation will come from people transforming the industries at the foundation of the economy.

​A huge thank you to the team at Paul Hastings for making this night possible. One of the premier law firms in the world, Paul Hastings has been a trusted partner to some of the most ambitious founders and companies in the country, and we are grateful they are bringing that same energy to this room in Chicago.

​Whether you're raising, hiring, scaling, or just starting out, the right conversation tonight could change what's possible tomorrow.
