About This Event

Please join the Chicago Council on Global Affairs for an evening to celebrate the contributions of Ivo Daalder, President and CEO, following the Lester Crown Distinguished Lecture on US Foreign Policy with former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan.

Ivo's tenure reflects his enduring interest in foreign policy, his commitment to building the capacity of the Council’s research, and his connections with members and the general public here in Chicago and around the world. He worked closely with Lester Crown and the Crown Family Philanthropies to establish the Lester Crown Center on US Foreign Policy; created and launched the Pritzker Forum on Global Cities; and successfully completed the $30 million Second Century Campaign. His impact runs deep and will influence the Council for years to come.
