Events

Young Professionals of Greater Lowell know how to work hard and play hard. A YPGL networking event is the perfect opportunity to relax and meet people outside of the office. You probably already know many faces in the room, but the YPGL philosophy is that the best networking happens when you meet people in a relaxed social atmosphere. Past events have taken place at Caffe Paradiso, the hospitality suite at DJ Reardon, and the Tewksbury Country Club. Make sure to sign up to receive email invitations to all of the YPGL events.

In addition to networking events, YPGL hosted a speaker event in 2006 featuring former General Electric CEO Jack Welch. This event was attended by more than 1,000 people.
