On Track to Lead: Propel is Just A Train Ride Away

As a Chicagoland rail professional, you already know the power of this city. Throughout its history, Chicago has become, and remains, the most important railroad center in North America, connecting companies to the east and west. 

Chicago isn't only moving freight, it's moving careers. 

This year, we are coming back to the Convene right by the Loop. Propel will be steps from where you work, commute, and connect. Whether you're walking from your office or hopping off the train at Union Station or Ogilvie, you're only minutes away from a professional development experience designed with you in mind.
