Multi-Chamber Luncheon ~ The Business Impact of the 2026 President’s Cup

As Chicago prepares to welcome the 2026 Presidents Cup, Executive Director Joie Chitwood will share an inside look at the extraordinary business and economic opportunities this global sporting event will bring to the region. The Presidents Cup — one of the PGA TOUR’s premier team competitions—returns this September, with the world’s top players and international media descending upon the historic Medinah Country Club.
In this session, Chitwood will break down the event’s anticipated impact on Chicago’s business landscape: from tourism and hospitality surges to job creation, corporate engagement, and long-tail economic benefits that extend well beyond tournament week. With broadcast coverage reaching 200+ countries and territories in more than 30 languages, Chicago will be showcased on a truly global stage — offering unprecedented visibility for local companies, cultural institutions, and the city itself.
