The Common Table: Chicago
The Common Table: Chicago
An invite-only luncheon to discuss the evolving opportunities for sustainability leaders to drive impact in their roles and beyond.
The Common Table is a global invite-only series, bringing together sustainability leaders to find common ground on the decisions in front of them. Each gathering is grounded in the local market and informed by the themes and questions emerging from peer conversations across regions.
Co-hosted by Cullen Mitchell of PayPal, this Chicago luncheon is a space for candid, off-the-record conversation among peers navigating what comes next for their sustainability programs. As teams look toward 2027, we’ll create space to compare notes on the priorities taking shape, the questions leaders are bringing back to their organizations, and what it will take to turn commitments into action.
The conversation will be shaped by the attendees themselves, with time for thoughtful discussion, peer connection, and practical exchange. This is not a space for pitches or presentations — only leaders sharing what they’re building, testing, and learning.
