History of MHYP

Mile High Young Professionals was founded in 2010 by Ira Johnson and Dan Kobler and was created to fill a need in the community. There were a lot of YP organizations but none offered a comprehensive YP membership. MHYP launched with the goal of being the best at exclusively providing value to our members.

As a YP, you have the luxury of developing relationships in a relaxed environment of your peers who are all focused on developing their professional careers. You can work with who you trust and who shares the same values. Look around- the people in this room are the future influencers of Denver, and you can become friends and colleagues now over a beer.

Why MHYP?

Mile High Young Professionals was created to fit the need for a universal Young Professionals resource in the Denver metro area. Many local organizations have just recently started focusing their campaigns towards young professionals.  As a result many Chambers, Industry Groups, and Non-Profits have developed a YP chapter associated with their organizations with varying levels of organization and visibility. MHYP is a collaboration point for all YP groups to gain exposure and get their message out, giving YP’s in Denver a progressive edge. Young Professionals in the Denver community tend to network with a different energy and expectation and we want them to be able to capitalize on that as much as possible through our programs and events.
