The money may be moving differently, but the momentum hasn’t stopped.

Future-Funded is your front-row seat to the forces reshaping venture capital. As market pressures, tech shifts, and evolving expectations upend the old playbook, the investors writing the future’s biggest checks are rewriting the rules.

Join the Executives’ Club of Chicago for this high-impact conversation featuring insights from leading VC minds — including the University of Chicago’s Steve Kaplan — as we decode the new math behind valuations, uncover the sectors fueling late-2025 interest, and explore what founders and funders need to know next. From AI to climate to consumer behavior, the future is already in motion — are you moving with it?

Expect to walk away with:

  • A clear read on the current state of the venture landscape
  • Perspective on the sectors, signals, and risks investors are actually watching
  • Strategic insight to navigate funding, valuations, and exit paths in a volatile market
