About Us
Founded as the Hospitality Center of Greater Chicago in 1952, and founded as a 501 C3 in 1956, the International Visitors Center of Chicago, we became WorldChicago in 2010. WorldChicago visitors explore their fields of interest through meetings with our extensive network of Chicago-area citizen diplomats, who are leading voices in the public, private, nonprofit, and tech sectors. Recent exchanges have centered on topics such as green technology and climate change, public health, government accountability, combating domestic violence, and preservation of cultural heritage.
