Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce: Illinois General Assembly Springfield Session Recap
Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce: Illinois General Assembly Springfield Session Recap
The
Illinois House adjourned its spring session on the evening of May 30
and the Illinois Senate did so shortly after midnight, thus ending an
Illinois General Assembly session that proposed a lot of grandiose
plans, but did not see many of them come to fruition. From the
Chicagoland Chamber’s perspective, there were some victories and some
frustrations.
The
FY 2016 budget adopted by the legislature does not adequately address
the state’s current spending obligations and is expected to be
revisited before the end of the fiscal year, with the possibility of a
tax increase after the November election.
A complete legislative report will follow next week, but below are some highlights:
- Extension of the Income Tax Increase: Due to expire on December 31, 2014, the “temporary” higher rates of the personal and corporate income taxes were not extended, nor was Governor Quinn’s $500 property tax rebate plan advanced in the legislature. (Chamber opposed.)

Mary Meeker's 2014 Internet Trends
Since 2001, Mary Meeker has developed a knack for highlighting what’s currently happening on the Internet and how this information may impact technology and business in the future. Last week she released her 2014 Internet Trends and it reveals some interesting digital trends. Here are the highlights:
- Marketing: Social messaging is changing from broadcasting a few messages to a large audience (like Facebook) to frequent interactions with targeted groups (like Snapchat).
- Apps: Single purpose apps are on the rise, making apps geared towards specific services more popular than ones that have multiple purposes.
- Big data: Sensor use in devices is providing companies with a lot more data to mine.
- Cloud: Falling costs for computing (33 percent), storage (38 percent) and bandwidth (27 percent) have enabled the cloud.
- User interfaces: As industries have developed new ways to present applications, bad user interfaces have started to disappear.
- Mobile first: Internet touch points with stakeholders are increasingly becoming mobile connections.
