Looking to increase membership, the Fairfield County Young Professionals Network (YPN) is hosting a holiday happy hour at the Stamford Innovation Center 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Dec. 17.
The event will feature a BevMax wine tasting and Half Full Brewery beer garden. The event will also host a toy drive to support Hurricane Sandy victims.
The YPN has been on hiatus for the past several months. But with a change in leadership, the group is looking to re-energize and boost its list of active participants.
“To compete for top talent, Fairfield County must actively attract and retain the best and brightest generation of workers,” Keith Reynolds, who is helping the network take off, previously told the Fairfield County Business Journal. “While young professionals do leave our region ”¦ they also arrive in large numbers. The broader objective is to achieve a better balance between those arriving and those departing.”
