Catalysts for positive change
Pensacola Young Professionals brings YPs together to share our passion for the Pensacola Bay area and create positive change in our community
Connecting the dots
Pensacola Young Professionals was created in 2006 to be a voice for the young pros of Pensacola. We started with taking a stand on the Maritime Park initiative and have made it our mission to be catalysts for positive change ever since.
We connect the dots between our members’ goals and the opportunities available to them in the Pensacola Bay area. Whether a member is interested in professional development, community service, local economic development, governmental affairs, or looking for networking opportunities, PYP looks to offer a little something for everyone.
Our goal is to connect members to opportunities within our community and create a greater sense of belonging that attracts and retains young talent in the Pensacola Bay Area.
PYP got me plugged in to the community. Every connection I have in Pensacola has stemmed from a connection made through PYP, a PYP event, a PYP program and becoming more involved in the leadership team. These connections have enabled me to launch a new business in downtown Pensacola and achieve great success as a new company from the relationships made and developed. I highly encourage companies to sponsor PYP as they are an amazing resource for top talent in the area while supporting the movement to attract and retain talent here in Pensacola.
