Tech Hub 1871 Seeks Another Expansion
Clip: 5/25/2015 | 5m 43sVideo has Closed Captions
We talk with John Pletz about the controversy surrounding the proposed 1871 expansion.
Chicago’s technology incubator, 1871, seeks public funding to expand for the second time in a year, following a 25,000 square foot expansion last year. The potential state-backed expansion concerns privately run co-working spaces and offices that rival 1871. We hear the latest from Crain's Chicago Business reporter John Pletz.
