Who We Are
The Young Professionals Group is made up of business professionals and corporate leaders between the ages 21 – 39. We’re ready to work hard, play hard and make a positive and impactful difference in the greater community of Anchorage. YPG was created in June of 2014 and is the largest young professional organization in Alaska with over 400 engaged members.
In the midst of a generation drawn to online social networks and online networking groups, Anchorage young professionals have not had an engaged and social network that addresses their specific needs -until now. The answer is the Young Professionals Group.
