YPN Annual Signature Event: Success in the City Thursday, May 17, 2007 The Hub Cira Centre The Young Professionals Network has been a leading professional development and networking organization in Greater Philadelphia for the past 10 years. During that time, Philadelphia evolved into a vibrant destination through establishing hip boutiques, stylish condos, award-winning eateries, a trendy bar scene and numerous arts and culture venues. This urban renaissance put the region back on the map for large corporations, developers, television and film producers, and college graduates as an exciting place to live, work and play. Join us for the inaugural Success in the City event hosted by YPN and the new Hub Cira Centre. This event will focus on the exciting lifestyle attractions for Philadelphia’s young professionals and look ahead at future development plans.
