About Program

How many agency leaders can you meet in 90 minutes? How many perspectives can you hear on where our industry is headed, how Chicago is leading the way, and how you can expand and elevate your network to be a driving force in it all?

Whether you are in-house or work at one of our city’s thriving agencies, PRSA Chicago’s Agency Leaders Breakfast Roundtable is your once-a-year opportunity for face-to-face, no-holds-barred, intimate and rapid conversations that will test our leaders’ knowledge and open the channels of dialogue we all crave. Twenty-three top execs from agencies of all sizes and specialties will be featured. How are they managing the convergence of public relations, marketing and advertising? Why are communications more vital than ever?

Part round-robin. Part speed dating. And, did we mention breakfast?
