About this Event
TPUSA Young Professionals Space Coast Kickoff Mixer
Join us for the official kickoff of TPUSA Young Professionals Space Coast, a new local community bringing together ambitious young professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, emerging leaders, job seekers, and career-minded individuals throughout the Space Coast.
Our goal is simple: build real relationships, create opportunities, help each other grow, and strengthen our local community.
This is not your typical networking event where everyone exchanges a few business cards, listens to a long presentation, and goes home.
We’re building a guided, open networking experience designed to help you actually meet the right people, have meaningful conversations, and walk away with new relationships and resources.
Throughout the evening, Chapter Leader Jarrett Hart will be intentionally introducing attendees who may be able to help one another based on their industries, goals, experience, and current needs.
Have a business challenge? Trying to find a new job? Need feedback on your resume or LinkedIn? Trying to grow a side business? Need help with marketing, personal branding, networking, or business strategy?
Bring the real-world challenges you’re working through.
Jarrett will be available throughout the event to offer insight, brainstorm ideas, make introductions, and help however he can. When something requires a deeper conversation, attendees will also have the opportunity to connect afterward and arrange additional time for mentorship or guidance.
As the community grows, we also plan to invite experienced business owners, executives, entrepreneurs, and leaders from different industries across the Space Coast to join us. Rather than relying on long speeches, the emphasis will be on personal conversations, small-group discussions, Q&A, and giving attendees the opportunity to learn directly from people with valuable experience.
Support Each Other Beyond the Event
We’ll also have an optional Young Professionals Social Media Exchange where attendees can connect on Instagram, LinkedIn, and other platforms.
The idea is simple: if we’re building a real community, we should support one another outside the room too.
Follow each other. Engage with each other’s work. Share opportunities. Make introductions. Refer business when appropriate. Help someone looking for a job. Support someone launching something new.
Your network should become more valuable because you’re part of this community.
What to Expect
Expect a relaxed, social atmosphere with complimentary appetizers, open networking, intentional introductions, small-group conversations, a social media exchange, and plenty of time to actually talk with the people you meet.
There may be a brief welcome and occasional featured guests or guided discussions, but this is not designed around long presentations or speeches. Everyone comes into the room needing something different, so we want to create an environment where people can interact personally, ask questions, exchange ideas, make friends, and help one another.
Whether you're growing a company, building your career, looking for clients, hiring, job searching, starting a side business, developing your personal brand, or simply looking for a stronger professional circle on the Space Coast, you're welcome here.
Who Should Attend?
This event is designed primarily for young professionals, including entrepreneurs, business owners, executives, employees, creatives, sales and marketing professionals, aerospace and technology professionals, job seekers, and anyone looking to grow personally or professionally.
You don't need to own a business or have an impressive title.
If you're ambitious, growth-minded, willing to help others, and interested in surrounding yourself with people who are working toward something, we'd love to have you.
Food, Drinks & Venue
Complimentary appetizers will be provided for registered attendees.
