Who We Are
Built For People Who Are Going Places
Open Young Professionals is a DFW-based community under the Open Dallas umbrella, created for ambitious young professionals who are hungry to connect, collaborate, and grow — not just professionally, but as a community.
We believe the most important relationships in your career aren’t built in boardrooms — they’re built at events like this. Our first event on June 28th will bring together young professionals, local business owners, and executives for a night of real conversations, great vendors, and genuine connection.
We’re not just hosting an event. We’re building a movement. And we want you to be part of it from day one.
Curated mixers that put you in the room with the right people — from peers to executives who’ve been where you want to go.
Our bazaar is a platform for local vendors, entrepreneurs, and small businesses to connect with a young, engaged audience.
Open YP is built to grow — more events, more cities, more opportunities. Get in at the ground floor.

Join The
Founding Board
We’re building the Open YP founding team — a small group of passionate, driven young professionals who want to shape what this community becomes. This isn’t a volunteer position. It’s a leadership opportunity.
Board members help organize events, lead outreach, coordinate vendors and venues, manage marketing, and grow the Open YP network from the ground up. If you’re the type of person who wants to build something — not just attend something — we want to talk to you.
