GX Connects

While the building has yet to open, the Green Exchange has already begun! GX Connects is a series of casual networking events designed to bring members of the green business community together to meet, mix and mingle.  To date, the events have been a rousing success, proving that a community that works together prospers.

If you are interested in joining the Green Exchange community, please contact our Director of Community Development, Aaron Gadiel at aaron@greenexchange.com or via phone at 312-275-6000.
