Chicago: The City of Big Ideas. What’s yours?
This Thursday, Nov. 5, RedEye is embarking on the second year of our Big Idea Awards in which we ask members of the public (yeah, that means YOU!) to come to our party at Morgan Manufacturing–aka a big ol’ pitch fest (plus food and drinks) for our 16 contestants to showcase their fresh and daring ideas in the categories of Art & Design, Technology, Food & Drink and Community Development & Civic Involvement–and vote for one winner per category. To purchase tickets to the Nov. 5 event, click here. Once the winners are chosen, RedEye will supply them with some pretty stellar prizes, including free advertising for their idea, mentorships with successful people in their industry, and more.
Read all about the event here to learn more about our keynote speaker, 1871’s chief operating officer Tom Alexander, and our awesome mentors: the general manager of Divvy in Chicago, the general manager of Uber Chicago, the executive director of the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild, the co-founder of Begyle Brewing and president of the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild, and the founder and lead designer of Anna Hovet Designs. Or for a better idea of what to expect, check out our recap and video from last year’s inaugural event here. And come prepared! Read up on each of the finalists by clicking the categories below.
Contest rules, because lawyers.
