Around the Town…YWPL 40 Under 40 Inspires!
The Young Women’s Professional League hosted their 5th Annual 40 Under 40 event and they did not disappoint! The room was not only filled with greatness but with a spirit of love and support for one another. The YPWL is an example of the greatness that is being birthed in Chicago, from entrepreneurship to top executives in their industry, every year the Young Women’s Professional League inducts an all-star line-up of women that are not only killing it in their careers but also having a greater impact on the community.
WDB Marketing celebrated the new year with a little laughter! Every year comedy DeRay hosts the biggest comedy show of the year at the Arie Crown Theater. This year he pulled out all the stops for a 4 day your featuring everyone from Rickey Smiley to Lil Duval, Bruce Bruce, and Michael Blackson. We salute him for always showing love to his hometown and bringing it in with us.
