About Us
Our Mission:
The Concord Young Professionals Network (CYPN) is a professional and personal development initiative of the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce, designed to offer networking, community involvement and social opportunities.
Launched in 2006, CYPN aims to energize young professionals who live and/or work in the Concord area and infuse a new attitude that Concord is alive after five.
Monthly networking events are hosted at various Concord venues where young professionals interact socially, build a network of contacts, exchange ideas and have fun. The bi-monthly Enrichment Series offers business programs and cultural experiences that interest young professionals.
Get involved in a Committee!
CYPN is sustained through the active participation of committee members. These people go above and beyond their every day responsibilities to make each CYPN activity beneficial for all. Choose an area that you'd like to contribute, and let us know how you'd like to be involved. Contact Becky Kinhan at rkinhan@concordnhchamber.com or (603) 224-2508.
