Chicago has long set the standard. This next chapter is about going even further - connecting events, communities, and charitable impact at a global scale.
“We believe endurance and mass participation sports are entering a new chapter, one where events, communities, and charitable impact are more connected than ever before,” said Johannes van Eeden, Founder and CEO of GivenGain. “Through events like the Bank of America Chicago Marathon, CEM has long set the standard in bringing those elements together. What makes this partnership so powerful is a shared belief in what this space can become, and the opportunity to help more runners turn every finish line into something that goes even further for the causes they care about.”
We’re thrilled to partner with the amazing team at Chicago Event Management to define a new standard for impact across the endurance industry.
