David Rubenstein Forum at the University of Chicag

The David Rubenstein Forum is a conference and event venue on the University of Chicago campus in Chicago. Its spaces are available to organisers planning meetings, conferences, lectures, corporate gatherings and other events, with rooms suited to both focused discussions and larger audiences.

The venue includes a large University Room for plenary sessions, Friedman Hall for talks and presentations, a boardroom for executive meetings, and the City View Room for receptions and events with views across the city and Lake Michigan. Smaller meeting rooms, lounges and pre-function areas provide options for breakout sessions, registration, networking and informal conversations. Different room layouts and capacities allow organisers to plan for gatherings ranging from smaller groups to several hundred guests.

Planning support is available through a dedicated event concierge and conference professionals, who can help clients coordinate the programme and arrangements at the venue. Meeting packages bring together room hire, refreshments, meals and standard audiovisual facilities, while catering options include food prepared on site and support for a range of dietary requirements. Organisers can also request audiovisual and streaming capabilities for hybrid meetings, presentations and broadcasts.

With furnishings, food and beverage service, technical support and event assistance available in one location, the Forum gives planners a practical option for bringing delegates together without coordinating every element separately. Its position in Hyde Park also places events within the University of Chicago campus and within reach of nearby accommodation.
