Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) September 15, 2014 - In an ongoing effort to inspire and empower Chicago entrepreneurs and the business community as a whole, Startup Grind hosts a fireside chat featuring special guest and Belly CEO Logan LaHive.

For entrepreneurs, inspiration is what motivates them. With respect to Belly, Logan's inspiration came from his experience creating online retail experiences in physical stores. This idea led to success. (A recent partnership has lead to 2,500 7-Eleven stores who now use Belly.)

When asked what constitutes such a business, the event's special guest Logan LaHive said that no two business owners share the same personality traits:

"The only required traits are determination and passion, because it's really, really hard. This is a job where you have to be 100 percent engrossed and passionate. Be sure you love it, because it will be the hardest thing you'll ever do."

During his fireside chat at Startup Grind Chicago on September 16, LaHive will discuss how entrepreneurship is a process of discovery. According to the Chicago-based entrepreneur:

"As a first time founder, I didn't anticipate 95% of the things I'd have to do. The vast majority of your action steps-you will discover [them] along the way. It's a journey of discovery that you figure out along the way."

For local business owners and startups, this event will take place on September 16 from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Central Time. Entrepreneurs who attend will have the opportunity to network and enjoy beer and wine. The Startup Grind Chicago headquarters are located at 2 North LaSalle Street 14th Floor.
