Event Description:
Our speaker, Pablo Korona is a next generation entrepreneur who loves Rockford. So much so that he launched “Our City, Our Story”, a yearlong storytelling project intended to highlight the interesting and positive stories about Rockford and its people.
Pablo’s vision for his project is to have it play a leading role in transforming the city’s vision of itself to one of pride and purpose. His work has been contemplated in a way to share the insights he’d been learning about the community through his work as a videographer.
“When I hear people talk negatively about Rockford, I always have reasons why it’s not bad,” Korona said. “I had seen a lot of cool stuff, things like the inside of (Hamilton) Sundstrand, working on the Dreamliner. The thing is, the stories don’t get out there. I thought there needs to be a focused place for people to go to hear all of these interesting stories.”
Event attendees will be inspired by Pablo’s sharing of this vision for his project as well as his passion for our community.
Also inspiring will be the graduation of the Rockford Chamber of Commerce’s 57th leadership class, building upon the strong legacy of leadership alumni who comprise the wealth of leaders in our community. Come and hear their wonderful story as well and congratulate them on their success.
