Chicago Young Professionals (CYP) - Was created to provide you with a platform to meet other yuppies in the city that share similar interests, explore all that the city has to offer while supporting the local Chicago economy. We stray away from big chains or national companies and instead partner with the neighborhood mom and pop local businesses to bring you some of the most creative events.

In just two years we organized 100+ events and given back ~$56K back to the local Chicago Economy!

This Meetup is for young professionals who are driven, passionate about what they do and interested in growing their network of friends in Chicago. Our events cover a broad spectrum, everything from low key BYOB dinner nights to Jumping off a plane for fun :)

Join us and you'll always have FUN things on your calendar to look forward to.

If you have any ideas for events then please feel to drop me a note.
