If you attend GVYP events, you’ll find such things as opportunities to get to know local executives and senior leaders on a more personal level (Breakfast with a CEO), you’ll develop new business and personal relationships with fellow young professionals at our happy hours (PowerHour), and you’ll have a chance to give back to the community by participating in our community services projects.
