The Chicago Sister Cities International Program invites you to join its new Corporate Partners’ Program. To ensure strong presence in the global arena, significant effort and resources are required to maintain existing relationships, cultivate future quality exchange opportunities and develop business/cultural missions at the highest levels. That is why the Chicago Sister Cities International Program is offering the corporate community the opportunity to participate in the Corporate Partners’ Program. 

About Chicago Sister Cities International Corporate Partners’ Program

Since 1960, Chicago has established official relationships with 26 international cities representing almost every region of the world. The Chicago Sister Cities International Program is a premier facilitator of business and cultural exchanges and is respected as one of the most successful and most active Sister Cities’ programs anywhere. It celebrates Chicago’s diverse multicultural heritage and engages citizens and businesses in international partnerships that promote trade, economic development, cultural enrichment, social awareness and educational opportunities.  
 
The long-standing relationship that has developed between our city and its corporate community ensures that Chicago’s presence will remain at the forefront of the ever-expanding global economy. The unique partnership and commitment to the basic underlying principles of world commerce—growth, opportunity and competition—is reflected in every dimension of the Chicago Sister Cities International Program.  
 
In 1990, the Chicago Sister Cities International Program became a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization operated under the auspices of the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs. Mayor Richard M. Daley serves as Honorary Chair of the Board of Directors.  
 
The Corporate Partners’ Program offers several benefits for your company, its employees, executives and clients. As a Corporate Partner you will send a strong and visible message reflecting your company’s commitment to promoting international alliances in the world of business and culture. In addition, the Corporate Partners’ Program provides numerous recognition opportunities.
