PMTC Young Leaders Group


In 2012 the PMTC Board of Directors was approached with a suggestion that we start a committee of young industry professionals under the age of 40 that would assist the Board with creating events that would be of interest to a younger demographic, and to openly discuss career path, mentoring, and other subjects of interest to this particular group.

The Board of Directors enthusiastically endorsed this idea and the Young Leaders Group was born.
