Comcast Business collaborates with top Chicago artists and Team One to showcase mobile solutions through larger-than-life art

In a move that blends creativity and technology, Comcast Business today announced a unique new collaboration in Chicago. Partnering with four prominent Chicago-based artists, Comcast Business introduced four larger-than-life smartphone statues in key neighbourhoods across the city. This initiative is designed to spotlight the crucial role of mobile technologies in today's business market while celebrating Chicago's vibrant arts scene.

Between September 19th and October 10th, 2024, the city will become a canvas for creativity and innovation as the nine-foot-tall mobile statues, each uniquely designed by local artists, make their debut in Lincoln Park, Pilsen, The Loop, and Hyde Park. These creative activations represent Comcast Business's commitment to industry-leading mobile solutions, as well as its desire to foster deeper connections in the communities that fuel Chicago's dynamic business landscape.

"In today's ever-connected world, businesses require robust, flexible mobile solutions that keep them ahead," said Tracy Pitcher, senior vice president of Comcast Business, Central Division. "Our collaboration with these talented artists underscores Comcast Business's dedication to both technological innovation and community engagement. These statues are an exciting visual celebration of both."

The project also includes a sweepstakes, open to businesses within Comcast's Greater Chicago Region, which spans Central and Northern Illinois, Northwest Indiana, and Southwest Michigan. Five lucky winners will share in $10,000 in prizes, including one $5,000award and five $1,000 awards. The winners will be announced on November 4th, 2024.

  • Pilsen: Harrison Park - 1824 S Wood St, Chicago, IL 60608
  • Loop: Daley Plaza - 50 W Washington St, Chicago, IL 60602
