welcome to YPT Europe
Young Professionals in Transportation (YPT) Europe is a new group setup in 2021, dedicated to supporting the professional development, mentoring, and networking opportunities for young transportation professionals across Europe.
We are part of a global network of chapters and young people promoting each other and advancing smarter, safer, and more sustainable transport in multiple industries.
Vision
Our goal is to foster a community that provides networking and learning opportunities to our members and friends through activities like tours, social gatherings, and inspiring talks. We aim to make YPT Europe a fun and exciting place to connect with like-minded peers. We welcome everyone from all areas of the transport industry including transport operators, startups, local & national government & academia.
Through field trips, happy hours, and speaker events, we want to create opportunities for professionals to gather on an informal basis, which will, over time, foster a community that provides mentorship and networking opportunities. But most of all, we want to make YPT Europe fun!
Speaker Series
Our inaugural speaker series will feature a range of transport experts discussing some of the most interesting topics in transport and mobility today! 🎉
More events to be announced on our LinkedIn page soon!
Committee
YPT Europe is divided into two regions – Western Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Benelux) and Northern Europe (UK, Ireland, Scandinavia, Iceland).

- Deputy Director for Finance – Western Europe
