The Future of Branding: Design is about your audience and their journey experiencing your brand. Brands are evolving from being identified in text and graphics to experiences. Control has shifted from companies to the consumers.

The Future of Branding: Design Roundtable Lunch is an invitation-only group of senior marketing executives from Chicago’s leading companies. The roundtable members benefit from a highly interactive format that allows every leader to exchange knowledge and experiences while networking over lunch. Siegel+Gale, the leading branding firm, is the event moderator. Business Development Institute is the event organizer.

On October 1, 2015 and on May 13, 2015 we hosted two Future of Branding Roundtable Lunches in Chicago with participation from leading brands including American Medical Association, Avision Young, Baxter Healthcare, DLA Piper, Grainger, Hearts Magazines, Hu-Friedy, IDEX Copr, Loyola University, Mayer Brown, McDonald’s Corporation, Northern Trust, Optum, PLS Finacial Services, Sears Holding Company, Syniverse, TransUnion, US Foods, United Airlines, Walgreen Co, Zebra Technologies and others.
