About this event
I'm Gustavo Casas & I'm all about community. I've invested in over 75+ communities across 3 cities & now, it's time to build one for us... La Plaza.
What is La Plaza: ⛲️
La Plaza is a feeling, a smell, a sense of community. Almost every latin American city has one, with a church, a paletero & elotera. Families kids & teenagers alike, coming together as one.
Our intention: [To recreate La Plaza in Chicago]
Community - We're as powerful as we are united, we're as strong as our network. Our parents sacrificed their lives for ours, let's make it worth their sacrifice, pero juntos.Career Advancement - Chances are you'll find your next big job, investor, founder, or client in person, not on linkedin.
