The YTM Business Connect “WHY” Dinner events were established in 2015 to provide an opportunity for business owners and professionals to step out of their comfort zone, raise their profile, present to an audience and prompt thought on a specific topic.

They want to affect because they believe change will bring a better way to live.’. - Kathy Caprino
