Your Chicago Press Room

Chicago is where the Midwest does business. From finance and food to manufacturing, logistics and the arts, the city’s companies and institutions make news every day. The Chicago Press Room carries official releases from across Chicagoland and from brands that want to be heard in the heart of the country.

Newspaper town

The Chicago Tribune was founded in 1847, and the city has been a serious news town ever since.

Biggest hall

McCormick Place is the largest convention center in North America, hosting major trade shows year round.

Markets

The Chicago Board of Trade opened in 1848, which is one reason the city still carries real weight in finance.
