The Entrepreneurial Knowledge Group of Park Ridge


What is the Entrepreneurial Knowledge Group?

The Entrepreneurial Knowledge Group is a group of independent business individuals who are the key individual in their organization and primarily responsible for the bottom line of their business. As a group we meet once a month to share experiences, knowledge and pertinent information relative to the independent entrepreneur in order to combine our collective talents in a way that makes each individual business stronger. We also discover ways that a group can serve in the areas of networking, sharing resources, sharing experience, and business promotional activities.  

Close connections with the Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce

Open to any independent business owner, we have close connections to the Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce and strongly recommend participation in that group as well.  The Park Ridge Chamber has helped to initiate the group and promotes our meetings and events that serve to broaden the scope of our community reach. We are appreciative of the chamber support as it also creates opportunities for the group that would be cost prohibitive to the individual.

Some of the events we have collaboratively created:
After-hours event(s)
Joint Winterfest promotion for our businesses
Shared tables at Canopies on Courtland (Taste of Park Ridge)
Mini Expo tables at Chamber Luncheon events
Initiated Speaker Series on various business development topics
