YPCC 2024 Afterglow

Warner Norcross is sponsoring an Afterglow event directly following the 2024 Young Professionals of Color Conference. This event is open to the public and provides the opportunity for young professionals to network with each other, along with conference participants and presenters.

Attendance is free for this event and provides an excellent opportunity to build your contact portfolio and enhance your career path goals.
