U3 Coffee is the Official Coffee Sponsor of 1 Million Cups Chicago

At U3 Coffee, we’ve always believed that great things happen when passionate people come together over a great cup of coffee. That’s why our partnership with 1 Million Cups Chicago feels like the perfect fit. Every Wednesday morning, 1MC brings together entrepreneurs, founders, and big thinkers from across the city to connect, share ideas, and support one another in building something meaningful.

Based on the notion that entrepreneurs discover solutions and engage with their communities over a million cups of coffee, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation launched 1 Million Cups in 2012. Since then, through the power of volunteers, 1 Million Cups has supported thousands of entrepreneurs across the country—creating a grassroots movement of innovation, collaboration, and community.

We’re proud to be fueling those conversations—one cup at a time. Whether it’s sparking a new collaboration or giving someone the boost to pitch their next big idea, we’re honored to be part of the journey.
