This August, ChicagoNEXT, an initiative of World Business Chicago, joined the Mayor's Office, the University of Illinois, and C3 Presents to host the three-day ThinkChicago: Lollapalooza 2018 program. ThinkChicago invites 200 of the nation's top tech and business students to experience the city's fast-growing technology industry and one of the country's most popular musical festivals. The one-of-a-kind program immerses future tech leaders within Chicago's innovation ecosystem, giving them an opportunity to meet Chicago icons and even pitch their own ideas. "ThinkChicago inspires students to unleash their career potential by exploring opportunities with Chicago startups and innovative companies," Mark Tebbe, chairman of ChicagoNEXT said. "By connecting this top talent to Chicago and its leading businesses, it's a win-win-win for our city, companies and students who are ready to start their careers."
