It’s no wonder it’s home to more than 52 million international and domestic visitors each year. Even though its nickname, the “Windy City,” is usually attributed to cool breezes blowing off Lake Michigan, Chicago is proud to boast ideal summer weather. Either indoor or outdoor team building activities are perfect for corporate events in Chicago at any time of year.

If your corporate group is visiting, team building activities in Chicago led by Best Corporate Events can help turn your trip into one your team will never forget. Best offers over 130 team building activities, for groups of 25 to 6,000, to create the most fun and productive corporate events. Bring your team together for a give-back CSR program that will boost team spirit while helping less fortunate members of the community. We are proud to offer a diverse number of corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs that help overseas soldiers, schools, the homeless, children, seniors, and others.

Bike Build Donation®

Bike Build Donation® has been enjoyed for many years by groups large and small. This top selling event continues to resonate with participants as they recall the joy of receiving their first bike. Groups use our new Brainstorm game and/or Minute 2 Win it activities to earn the parts needed to assemble bikes for kids in need.

A Minute 2 Win It!

As seen on the popular TV game show, and adapted for team play, your group will participate in rounds of fast-paced tabletop challenges. The competition heats up as one-minute games are practiced and scored using commonplace items like pencils, plastic cups and a deck of cards. Teams will cheer and have a blast as they vie to be named A Minute 2 Win It! Champions!

Best Corporate Feud

BEST Corporate Feud is our corporate game show with fast-paced rounds of survey questions specifically written for corporate groups. Winning “teams” move forward to the semi-finals and hopefully, to the Finale. Our unique design keeps everyone involved throughout the show, regardless of your group size. No matter how many points are on the scoreboard, you can be confident that your participants will score big with this BEST Corporate Feud!

City SmartHunt®

City SmartHunt® is the ultimate technology-driven scavenger hunt. Your group will experience the interactive features of our SmartHunts app on Apple® iPads® that utilize text messaging, audio, video, FaceTime®, social media, QR codes, and GPS with built-in mapping to produce the coolest hunts ever! SmartHunts® have two-way messaging so teams are connected with the SmartHunts Master who tracks them using GPS and monitors photos and scoring from the teams during the hunt.

Build-a-Wheelchair®

A CSR program that will touch your heart, Build-a-Wheelchair® is a fun, worthwhile event that benefits the growing population of persons with mobility challenges. Beginning with our Brainstorm game and or Minute 2 Win it activities to earn the needed materials, teams will then assemble, safety test and decorate new wheelchairs for donation. When possible, a representative from the selected charity will arrive to accept and thank the group for their donations.

Build-a-Guitar®

Learning to play music can have a very powerful and positive effect on young people. With Build-a-Guitar®, corporate groups have the opportunity to build and donate guitars to young people. As the name suggests, teams are tasked to build high-quality guitars from custom designed kits. The finished guitars are then donated to teens through schools and other youth organizations.

Igniting Team Performance®

This exclusive training will guide your team through a progressive series of engaging initiatives followed by rich processing discussions focused on high-performing teams. Throughout the program, demonstrated skills are acknowledged while areas for improvement are identified and immediately applied during subsequent activities. Igniting Team Performance® will enhance individual and team performance in the workplace.

Competition to Collaboration®

Our engaging, trademarked training program that highlights the positive impacts of organizational synergy, both in sharing best practices and celebrating your colleagues’ successes. It begins with two sub-teams completing various challenges separately, attempting to improve their own performance and reaching goals for the other team to beat. This is followed by a surprise twist that reinforces the message of team collaboration.

Bridge to the Future

In this collaborative event, teams work together to build an actual bridge that has the strength to support the weight of the entire group. There are two amazing aspects of this project. Each section of the bridge will be an independent artistic representation of your future mission and goals AND the principal building materials of the structure are cardboard and duct tape!

Crack the Case!®

Immerse your group in a world of mystery, intrigue, and detective work with our exciting team challenge, Crack the Case!® In this fun challenge, participants will be placed in the shoes of trainees close to completing a private investigator course, studying to become elite detectives. The program is a challenge that is the final test of their skills before receiving certification as detectives. In order to succeed, they must work together to solve a series of puzzles and challenges designed to test creative thinking, problem-solving, ingenuity, and deductive reasoning. Ultimately, the group must solve all the challenges in the test to crack the case and prove their prowess as detectives.
