RYP Professional Development & RDDC: Millennials Redefining America’s Cities
May 10, 2016 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
$30The future of Rochester is being written today! Do you want to be a part of shaping it? We are bringing together today’s established leaders with the millennial leaders of the Rochester of tomorrow to ignite a dialogue that co-creates a shared vision for the future of Rochester. Tables will be generationally mixed to promote a cross-generational dialogue and great networking opportunities. Tickets are normally $60, but will be just $30 for RYP members! Come early (10:45-11:45am) for a FREE Innovation Expo to get an inside look at the fast growing high tech and arts organizations that are shaping the Downtown Innovation Zone.
Kimberly Jones of Butler/Till will be giving an overview of the millennial generation and then Clement Chung of the RocCity Coalition will report on the results of the recent Vision 2025 Project that used surveys and focus groups of millennials to create a shared vision of Rochester’s future from the millennial perspective. We’ll then have a panel of young professional leaders in Rochester including Seth Eshelman of Staach, Sara Fitzgerald ofCGI Communications, Inc., Ana Liss of Greater Rochester Enterprise (Rochester, NY), M. Andre Primus of Roc Share and Steve Vogt of Peer Place Networks.
