Have you tried these FREE seminar/networking events for CEOs and entrepreneurs yet?

Held from 8-10 a.m. on the second Thursday of every month (except August) at the Illinois Institute of Technology's Rice Campus, 201 East Loop Road, Wheaton IL, the CEO Series started a new format in February 2012: Each month, a guest CEO brings business problems or challenges to the consulting panel of Bill Price, Ellen Huxtable and Paul Lloyd. After the panel gives their suggestions, they invite audience members to ask questions and share their experience on the issues raised.

Spring-Summer 2012:

• April 12
• May 10
• June 14

About the CEO Series

To build relationships with area business owners and CEOs, Bill Price of GrowthLaw, a business-focused lawyer dedicated to helping client businesses grow, organizes the CEO Series in cooperation with two other area business service providers, Paul Lloyd of Zuk-Lloyd Associates and Ellen Huxtable of Advantage Business Concepts. Together, these three organizers and cosponsors offer Chicago-area CEOs this program of FREE informational seminars for CEOs and business owners, with networking before the presentation and more time to meet peers and speakers after.

Bill Price and his co-organizers  choose CEO Series speakers by choosing the most interesting CEOs of successful businesses with whom they have worked. Starting this month, claim for yourself the advantage of hearing about real-life business ideas that worked, from the CEOs who used them.
