This traveling after-hours networking event spotlights each Young Professional Network in their home region, featuring local hotspots, NH updates & topics from the Stay Work Play crew, and a casual, fun way to connect with other young Granite Staters.
The Rising Stars Leadership Program offers a path for young leaders in New Hampshire to develop personal and professional leadership skills while building a strong understanding and connection to the different aspects that make New Hampshire the right place to Stay, Work, and Play.
An initiative of Stay Work Play, in partnership with New Hampshire Public Radio, the Rising Stars Awards celebrate and recognize New Hampshire’s remarkable young people (40 and under) and the businesses that go the extra mile to recruit and retain them.
Helping to connect new Granite Staters to each other, longer term residents, and, ultimately to New Hampshire, the Welcome Home series hosts fun themed events across the state.
At this half-day summit, attendees hear from, and engage with, compelling young people who have made an impact in New Hampshire in the arts, social justice, business, politics, and more. Attendees meet others who share their passions, and connect with individuals and organizations with whom they might partner.
The Policy & Pints Pop-Up Series brings together young people (21+) at eight craft breweries across the state to discuss issues that impact their decision to stay in, or leave, New Hampshire, as well as their ideas for public policy solutions to these issues.
Bringing together young people, legislators, and employers, the annual legislative reception is a casual networking event honoring NH’s under-40 legislators.
It has become a tradition of Stay Work Play to celebrate June 3 as 603 Day (#603Day). Join us in sharing your love for the 603 on the third day of June!
