Ready to make new connections? Join the Young Professionals Network for Speed Networking, a fast-paced and fun way to meet fellow young professionals from across the Sioux Falls community. Think speed dating, but for networking! You’ll rotate through a series of short, one-on-one conversations designed to help you meet new people, learn about what they do and expand your professional network. We’ll provide conversation prompts to help break the ice, so whether you’re a networking pro or attending your first YPN event, you’ll have an easy way to get the conversation started. Come ready to connect, exchange ideas and maybe even walk away with a few new professional connections, friends or collaborators. Don’t forget your business cards! Limited to the first 60 to register. This is a FREE event, but you must register in advance to save your spot. 

Party planners and extroverts, this team is for you! The Social Action Team plans all of the YPN networking and fun social events such as Off the Clock, Morning Buzz, Power Lunch, and many others.

Join us on April 16th from 4:00 to 5:00 PM for an insightful Post-Legislative Session recap with Mitch Rave, Vice President of Public Policy, and Aaron Vlasman, Public Policy Manager at the Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce.
