Actionable insights on foreign exchange risk management from FX Initiative.

Windy City Webinars

As our collaboration with DePaul University’s Coleman Entrepreneurship Center (CEC) progresses, we are excited to announce our project titled WindyCityWebinars.org.  Led by students and supported by sponsors, this remote learning initiative is designed to teach best practices and provide unique industry insights to students, employees, clients, and prospects.

This collaboration is made possible by the support of the Chicago business community, universities, and sponsors that enable and empower this student driven mission to keep learning alive and accessible to all during the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us for professional development opportunities as we share valuable thought leadership to online audiences.

Whether you are a student seeking a job or internship, a professional looking to sharpen skills and generate leads, or a corporation committed to bettering your community through education and outreach, we invite you to attend, present, and/or sponsor an educational webinar.

Engaging Student Entrepreneurs

To help support students studying entrepreneurship strategy, FX Initiative is pleased to collaborate with DePaul University’s Coleman Entrepreneurship Center. During the spring semester, we will be working with a team of student entrepreneurs to deliver a series of remote learning sessions designed to serve the professional development and networking needs of the Chicago business community. 

The Coleman Entrepreneurship Center (CEC) empowers students, alumni, and community members to build sustainable businesses that do good and do well in Chicago. The CEC is a premier hub to connect, advise, and inspire entrepreneurship and innovation.

Windy City Summit Remote Learning Session

With the cancellation of the 2020 Windy City Summit, our originally planned live learning session will be held remotely. Registration for this program is open to the public. If you are a Windy City Summit sponsor or attendee and would like to learn more about remote learning opportunities, please contact us at support@fxinitiative.com.

As health and safety remains a top priority, we fully support the timely decision of the conference organizers. Following increased concerns about COVID-19 over the past few weeks, it was determined that canceling the event was the safest option for all involved. For additional information, visit the Windy City Summit website.

As many are shifting work routines and showing resilience, FX Initiative remains committed to our mission serving as a global foreign exchange (FX) continuing professional education (CPE) provider of on-demand training, online tools, and webinar topics on currency risk management for finance, accounting, and treasury professionals.

We are a Chicago based organization, and similar to the Chicago Fire of 1871, we are committed to offering a rewarding “silver lining” experience by salvaging the summit’s valuable learning opportunities. Please join our webinar on Wednesday, May 20th 2020 on Mastering Currency Risk Management by registering here.
