William Blair & Company Generations of Integrity This Chicago-based investment firm serves those who could buy this service anywhere they choose, and they have
chosen William Blair for more than 70 years. For the most part this anniversary report
does not look backward. Its focus — like the company’s — has always been on what’s
next and how best to serve its clients. The case studies highlighted tell stories of
performance based on bringing together a highly motivated staff of professionals who
measure success in relationships, not quarters.
