Tuesday Tech Book Clubs
4 Different Tracks = 4 Different Accelerators
Application Deadlines: Early 2026 (program specific)
Join a cozy group of tech leaders with similar interests connecting in a private, shared conversation centered around a book or piece of media so you can advance your career in a more intentional way.
Tuesday Tech Book Clubs in 2026 will operate four distinct sections, each giving a different focus to explorations, conversations, and members.
🤖 AI for Executives. For executives across tech.
🤝 AI for Managers. For managers NOT WORKING AT AI COMPANIES integrating AI into their management, processes, and systems.
💪 Beyond the Bench. For scientists ready to grow beyond the lab, this small group of researchers and R&D professionals connects with peers and guest speakers to explore leadership, management, and career growth across science and business.
❤️ Deeply Chicago. For civic-minded tech professionals building with love and curiosity for this city.
Schedule: Each Tuesday Tech Book Club meets every two months throughout 2026 with a small, fixed group of twelve accelerator membes (your Tuesday Tech Book Club accelerator) for a private, two-hour conversation around one book or piece of media.
Application Deadline: Varies by program. Reviewed and accepted on a rolling basis.
Locations: Meetings take place during the work day (typically 12-2pm) and are hosted in and around the Central Business District of Chicago.
Committment: Participants commit to attending consistently and engage fully across the year, building trust and connection with their accelerator members through shared experiences.
Confidentiality: Meetings follow Chatham House rules to encourage candor, reflection, and curiosity. All Fellows are given the option of being included in a public announcement of their acceptance and completion.
