Join us for the 2nd Annual Chicago Health & SportsTech Showcase! This event brings the local startup community together to highlight up-and-comers in the health, wellness, fitness, sports, and related technology fields. These chosen-up-and comers will be on display -- you get to meet the founders and interact with their products. 

Then we'll sit down for a fireside chat with Erik Hammer. He's the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Marquee Ventures, a VC fund spun out of the Chicago Cubs. Marquee Ventures invests in early-stage companies in commerce, entertainment, sports, and enabling infrastructure.

The Showcase is hosted at Brooklyn Boulders Chicago, Chicago's premiere rock climbing facility.
