Pitches for founders in Chicago

8 upcoming startup pitch events for founders & investors in Chicago. Curated events in the US.

Chicago AI Week is mid-flight, with the AI 2030 + 1871 summit running Jun 24–25 and a LangChain meetup featuring Harrison Chase on Jun 22 worth catching. The MHUB Physical AI Hackathon on Jun 26 and an OpenAI Forum the same day round out a heavy builder stretch. Looking further out, Aspen Ideas Climate lands Jul 20 as the Midwest's biggest climate convening, and Q2B fuses with the Chicago Quantum Summit on Dec 8 — the Quantum Prairie's coming-out moment.

One email every Monday: the Chicago events worth planning around. Hand-filtered, with the fine print. Nothing else, ever.
