Why should you join YP?
"Young Professionals opens many different doors for networking, business, friends, events and on a personal level."
Why YP?
"When I first came to the Netherlands I looked into finding a way to remain connected with Swedish traditions, companies, and people. I came across YP and already at the first event I made a lot of new connections and now friends. The YP network has been a great opportunity for me to get better integrated when I moved to Amsterdam both from a personal but also professional point of view."
