About this Event

Join us for a celebration of growth, partnership, and community! We're marking the official beginning of a landmark partnership between SI Now, the SIU Alumni Association, and the SIU Foundation -- in collaboration with the City of Carbondale, Carbondale Chamber of Commerce, and Carbondale Main Street -- spotlighting the achievements of local alumni-owned businesses and letting everyone know the Southern Illinois region is open for business and built for success.

There will be a formal presentation about the partnership beginning at 5 p.m.

Highlights include:

  • Taste and Discover: Sample offerings from local food-focused alumni businesses.
  • Hear Inspiring Stories: Alumni testimonials highlighting success, growth, and community impact.
  • Network with Purpose: Connect with fellow alumni, local entrepreneurs, and community leaders.
