Silicon Prairie Social is a technology industry networking event in the western Chicago suburbs, providing a great opportunity for tech professionals in the area to connect in a social setting with like-minded people. The event is open to upwardly mobile tech professionals, tech entrepreneurs, technology service providers, Internet professionals, Web 2.0 and startup companies, and the mobile industry

Our goal is to jumpstart the tech community in the Chicago suburbs. Silicon Prairie Social is a catalyst to seeing that happen. We’re using this event to:

• Connect local people with others in their industry and build community
• Raise the profile of the Silicon Prairie through the publicity generated around the events.
• Foster investment and economic development in the region by showcasing local businesses, entrepreneurs, and startups.

The next Silicon Prairie Social is to be held on Thursday, July 10, 6:30pm at Mullen’s Bar and Grill in Lisle. Read the full announcement here. RSVP is required (click here to RSVP).

Silicon Prairie Social was founded by Arthur Zards and Tim Courtney of XNet.
