The Free Enterprise Center at Concordia University Chicago welcomes the public to two events next month: a screening of the short film, “More Valuable Than Money: Vision” on Nov. 7, and a Business Leaders Breakfast featuring keynote speaker Dr. Scott B. Rae on Nov. 15. Both events take place in room 248 of the Christopher Center (CULearn) on the University’s campus.

Join the College of Business and Free Enterprise Center at 7 p.m. on Nov. 7. Attendees are encouraged dress up and walk the red carpet before the film. Following the movie screening will be a dessert reception and interactive discussion between the audience and community leaders. Cost is $10 and online registration is required.
The Business Leaders Breakfast begins with networking at 7 a.m. on Nov. 15, followed by a breakfast buffet and the keynote address.
