I’m delighted to welcome you to the Young Professional Network of the Greater Philadelphia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. Our focus is and will continue to be your career development, opening doors through networking opportunities while giving you platforms to develop and strengthen career skills for your professional success.

At the core of our mission, we strive to expose our members with opportunities to give back to communities. You will find opportunities to engage with small and mid-size business owners to support their growth and success. We believe that altruism is one key element of career growth, because the more exposed you are to teaching others, the more you learn and continue to polish those unique attributes that will set you up for success.

Together, we are paving the path for future hispanic generations as they enter the workforce and become emerging leaders and entrepreneurs within their communities, making their way up the ladder to the C-Suite and Board rooms.
