Marketing

Amplifying the positive narrative that the Loop is Chicago's central hub of industry, entertainment, shopping, business, and residents served as a primary area of focus in 2023.

Advancing the work of Loop businesses through intentional marketing efforts of Everyone’s Neighborhood campaign and Sundays on State remained a major part of the marketing and communications strategy. This program area was furthered through fresh video campaigns surrounding Chicago Loop Alliance membership; What is a Chicago Loop Alliance Ambassador: and a general overview of Chicago Loop Alliance (CLA).
