NEW MEMBERSHIPS

In 2023, CIAP is focusing our on providing you and your business more opportunities for growth and connection. We have restructured our memberships to be business oriented so that we may better support you.

Check out our membership page.


NEW EVENTS

The goal is to help members connect and build strong mutually beneficial relations. Our monthly dinners are now MEMBER ONLY events at MEMBER HOMES. That is right! Our networking is truly Italian style. We will now meet at a member's home who graciously hosts our networking dinner. This event occurs every second Wednesday of the month from 7PM to 9PM. If you want to host, contact our Director of Marketing at [email protected]


At the end of every quarter, we will host events at the University Club of Chicago! These events are panel discussions designed to help you and your business grow. Members of our group, experts in the field will provide great value as panelists. Members and non-members are welcomed to attend.

To sponsor a panel discussion or be a panelist, contact Salvatore Sciacca at [email protected]
