Founded as an initiative of Hatchworks Coworking in January 2023, AYPROS was created with the mission to attract and retain young, creative talent to the Asheville region while also developing the next generation of leaders and enhancing Asheville's sense of place.
AYPROS' founding leadership decided this could only happen by working hand-in-hand with community and business leaders to learn from their experiences and create relationships among the most passionate people in Asheville. It could only happen with a focus on diversity and inclusion among members and suppliers. When identifying new partners, AYPROS considers minority, women, veteran, and LGBTQ+ owned businesses.
Our leadership is combined with decades of connection, conversation, development, and activism. AYPROS will soon become one of the leading young professional groups in the nation. AYPROS mission will evolve over the years to focus on making Asheville an awesome city for young professionals to live, work and play.
Because at the end of the day, it's really all about Asheville and the young professionals who call it home.
At AYPROS, our mission is to empower, embolden, and mobilize the next generation of leaders in Asheville. We are committed to building a vibrant community that attracts and retains young professionals from all backgrounds and experiences.
Through our dedication to diversity, inclusion and innovation, we strive to create a welcoming city that supports young professionals' unique needs and aspirations. We believe that by harnessing our collective energy and passion, we can positively impact our city, both today and for generations to come.

Whether through networking events, volunteer opportunities, or advocacy work, we are constantly seeking new ways to connect, inspire, and empower our members to make a difference.
