Are you planning on travelling to Chicago for work? Get to know the US city better in this comprehensive guide for business travellers.<\/strong><\/p>\n Colloquially named “The Second City” for its historic rivalry with New York City, Chicago is more than a match for its world-famous counterpart. A booming business scene, underpinned by The Loop business district (the second-largest of its kind in North America), is a testament to the city’s economic clout, while picture-postcard views across the Chicago River give a glimpse into the softer side of Illinois.<\/p>\n Chicago is the perfect place to test the balance between work and play. Beyond the boardrooms and tech haven along the River North, you’ll find the iconic Navy Pier with its Ferris wheel crown, the architectural delights of Millenium Park commanded by the ultra-polished Cloud Gate sculpture, and the 110-year-old Wrigley Field home of the Chicago Cubs Major League Baseball team.\u00a0<\/p>\n Come the evening, you’ll be spoilt for choice amid the bustle of traditional jazz clubs and stunning rooftop bars offering sweeping views across the patchwork of buildings old and new. Those craving a bigger slice of Chicago’s culture can tuck into a delicious deep-dish pizza – a style developed in the city in the early 1940s.\u00a0<\/p>\n In this comprehensive guide to Chicago for business travellers, we delve deeper into navigating the city’s unique corporate landscape, offer our top tips for getting around, and pick out our top 3 things to see or do to make your trip unforgettable.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”#gettingthere” button_text=”How to Get to Chicago” admin_label=”BUTTON – Getting There” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#6D6E71″ custom_padding=”15px|30px|15px|30px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”HEADER – Factfile” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_text_align=”center” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_5_text_align=”center” header_5_text_color=”#FFFFFF” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.gdg.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Seal-of-Chicago.png” alt=”The seal of Chicago” title_text=”Seal of Chicago” align=”center” admin_label=”IMAGE – City Shield” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”63%” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”TEXT – Shield Caption” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||on||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”10px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-3%||5%||false|false” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n The Seal of Chicago featuring the 1837 date of the city’s inauguration, a sheaf of wheat standing for the fertility of the Illinois prairies, a depiction of Lake Michigan, and the Indians, the original settlers of the Chicago region.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-16px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”BODY – City Stats” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_4_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_5_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_6_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n The official language is English.\u00a0<\/p>\n US Dollar ($)<\/p>\n Spring (Mar-May) = 12\u00b0C (54\u00b0F) [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”SECTION – Getting There” module_id=”gettingthere” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row admin_label=”ROW – Divider” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”ROW – Getting There (Header)” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”HEADER – Getting There” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ admin_label=”ROW – Getting There (Body)” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.gdg.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/ICON-Air.png” title_text=”ICON – Air” align=”center” admin_label=”IMAGE – Air” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”45%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”HEADER – Air” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”BODY – Air” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”%91%93″]<\/p>\n Chicago has two major airports: O’Hare International Airport (ORD)<\/strong> on the northwest side of the city, approximately 17 miles (27 kilometres) from The Loop, and Midway International Airport (MDW) <\/strong>located 12 miles (19 kilometres) away in the southeast.

Think “smart casual.” Tailored trousers, a button-down shirt, or a well-fitting dress are generally appropriate.
