Join YPN at one of the region’s top restaurants, R2L, to meet Mark Gale, CEO of the Philadelphia International Airport (PHL).

Set on the 37th floor of The Residences at Two Liberty Place, R2L offers expansive views of the Center City skyline and provides the perfect backdrop for Gale as he discusses the importance of PHL to Greater Philadelphia, the impact it has on our regional economy, and its latest development updates.

One of the largest economic engines in the state, PHL pumps $14 billion annually into the local economy and generates 42,000 jobs. In 2009, it accommodated 30.6 million passengers and handled almost 473,000 aircraft departures and landings.

As CEO of the PHL since 2009, Gale has been responsible for directing the activities of the City’s Division of Aviation, including PHL and Northeast Philadelphia Airport. He currently oversees the management of approximately 800 airport personnel.

Don’t miss this opportunity to network with young professionals and enjoy R2L’s modern twist on traditional décor and flavor! Additionally, attendees are encouraged to bring unopened water bottles to be collected by the YPN Volunteer Committee. Through a partnership with the United Service Organizations Inc. (USO), these bottles will be provided as refreshment to troops returning to PHL. USO is a private, nonprofit organization that provides morale and recreational services to members of the U.S. military.
