ISPE’s YP membership has grown significantly since the first YP event was hosted at the 2007 Annual Meeting by a YP group in the Boston Area Chapter. In 2010, “Young Professional” became an official ISPE member type and a recognized community. From there, YP group formation accelerated. There are now 10 YP groups across the United States and 10 in Europe representing 14 European countries. In 2015 the International YP Committee (IYPC) was formed to encourage global growth and collaboration among the ISPE YP groups and ISPE at large. ISPE YP communities are also growing in Singapore, China, India, Japan, and the Philippines. More importantly, each region held multiple YP events in past year.
