“It’s no secret the city’s viability depends on maintaining a vibrant downtown area,” reads the opening line of the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce’s event listing for “Revitalizing Downtown Wilmington: How young professionals contribute to the equation.”
The Wednesday morning event focuses on plans to attract young professionals to the city. Wilmington Economic Development Director Jeff Flynn, will lead the discussion.

Join the conversation on October 7 as we learn how development projects on the horizon will cater to residents and professionals alike.
