Where young professionals meet...

Founded in 2018 by like-minded individuals, the Italian Young Professionals (IYP) committee is a group dedicated to promote the business growth of its members through different projects and activities. Its members are all young professionals (under 35 years old) who are taking their first steps in the business world and need to build the necessary skills to have a successful path.

Through the IYP, internationally-minded young professionals have the opportunity to find a platform to develop peer support, network, share ideas and experiences, seek mentors, boost career opportunities, and overcome the challenges they face in establishing and setting up successful careers in Hong Kong and in the Asia Pacific Region.

Our mission is to enrich the lives of young professionals based in Hong Kong through unique opportunities for professional development and personal enrichment.

• Address the needs and interests of IYP members through educational and social activities;
• Provide a value-added platform for young professionals to create new networks with peers and senior business leaders within the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong and Macao;
• Encourage young professionals to actively participate in events that will empower their professional and social networks.

The activities range from leadership and career seminars, training events and courses, to fun and informal get-togethers such as dinners, pub meet-ups, outdoor activities and other networking events.

• Attend events, conferences and seminars tailored-made for the YP community;
• Discounts to events for IYP (when applicable);
• Access a network of professionals based in Hong Kong;
• Contribute to a forum of ideas and trends between experienced and entry-level professionals;
• Join IYP mentorship programme.
