Regional Networking Groups

What do we do?

Come join one of our suburban networking groups in Evanston, Naperville, or Barrington! It’s a chance to meet local CWIPers over a cup of coffee and chat about industry-related topics. The groups meet once a month – never interfering with regular CWIP meetings and events – and are an invaluable part of your CWIP membership. Be sure to bring your business cards!
