The Young Professionals Network (YPN) is led by 10 individuals who volunteer their time to create inclusive spaces for Chamber members under the age of 40 to build connections and bring together businesses to enhance the quality of life in the Joplin region.
A variety of opportunities are available that connect business professionals to like-minded individuals through networking events; EdTalks are a speaking series focused on professional development; weekly HYPE lunches hosted at local restaurants allow for casual networking; and the Chamber livability work groups, led by the YPN executive committee, link YPN members to the community.
The YPN Executive committee invites YPs to get involved in the following work groups to assist with building up our community and expanding each other’s connections.
