Cozen O’Connor Public Strategies is proud to announce that Patrick Martin, Executive Vice President, has been elected to the Economic Club of Chicago (ECC). Based in the firm’s Chicago office, Patrick has been instrumental in spearheading Public Strategies’ expansion in the Midwest, which includes nearly a dozen state and city lobbying professionals in Illinois and Minnesota.
Patrick will collaborate with fellow ECC members to drive economic and social impact across the city of Chicago. A dedicated leader in both the business and philanthropic communities, he serves on the boards of the YMCA of Metro Chicago and Rainbows for All Children, and recently became a director with the Western Golf Association Evans Scholars Foundation. He is also very involved with Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago, assisting them with government relations and serving as a member of their Mercy Society. In recognition of his contributions to the city, Patrick was named to the Crain’s Chicago Business 40 Under 40 list in 2020.
As a member of ECC, Patrick will engage with a distinguished network of 2,400 leaders spanning every industry in Chicago, including 70% C-suite executives. ECC’s commitment to civic engagement and thought leadership makes it a vital force in shaping the city’s future, setting Chicago apart from the national business landscape.
Cozen O’Connor Public Strategies congratulates Patrick on this accomplishment and looks forward to his continued impact in the region.
