About Chicago · October 2026

Chicago's next eight weeks are mostly builder nights, with the big draw landing in December. The marquee is Q2B x Chicago Quantum Summit on Dec 8, where the quantum-to-business conference moves to town alongside UChicago, Argonne and Fermilab. Sooner, the Chicago Frontier Hackathon on Oct 16 targets agent-driven code, and 1871's Fintech Innovation Summit on Nov 12 is the one to hold time for.
