It is the hottest neighborhood with amazing award-winning restaurants, new businesses growing there and so many things to do. It is in the center of the action and where we wanted to be!

What are your top challenges in growing your business?

Getting our name out there. Convene is a NYC-based company who only recently expanded into the Chicago market in early 2019. By the end of 2020 we will have 5 locations open, so we want to make sure businesses and clients know who we are and what we can provide.

Why did you join the West Central Association?
