# Join us at Chicago Venture Summit!

Join LongJUmp for a happy hour with BLCK VC and M25 on September 28th following the Chicago Venture Summit!

September 20, 2021 · Updated June 26, 2025

LongJump applicants + founders,

Hope you're all doing well and enjoying the fall!  We wanted to invite you to a [happy hour](https://chicagoventuresummitclosing.splashthat.com/?ref=updates.longjump.vc) we're throwing (alongside BLCK VC and M25) to celebrate the end of the Chicago Venture Summit - and specifically to celebrate all of you + the other underrepresented founders in our community.  

The event will also be a great opportunity to meet other investors (from Chicago and the coasts), LongJump LPs, and generally build community amongst the underrepresented founder ecosystem.

The event will be next nesday, September 29th - starting at 5:30pm at [the Hoxton](https://www.google.com/maps/place/The+Hoxton,+Chicago/@41.8861049,-87.6488345,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x89d1702b49dfe6d3?sa=X\&ved=2ahUKEwj_vYDn5I3zAhXlFVkFHQfABLMQ_BJ6BAhTEAU\&ref=updates.longjump.vc).

We'd love to see and reconnect with you there!  If you're interested, RSVP [here](https://chicagoventuresummitclosing.splashthat.com/?ref=updates.longjump.vc).

P.S. - the Chicago Venture Summit in general may be worth attending if you're in the midst of (or gearing up for) a fundraise.  Lots of potential investors in attendance!

Best,\
LongJump Team
