About US

Built to Inspire

Downtown Professionals Network (DPN) is a research and planning firm specializing in solutions for community, downtown and business district economic development, redevelopment and revitalization initiatives. 

Our immersive approach and innovative programs provide a canvas to create, a forum to dream, and a process to think, plan and act strategically.

Where Passion and Experience Meet

DPN is a collaborative for industry-leading advocates and practitioners who share a passion for our work and bring hands-on, real world experience to help organizations and communities explore opportunities, develop solutions, and plan and act for the future.  

We work alongside community leaders and stakeholders to understand needs, to explore opportunities, and to deliver plans, training, technical assistance and support that emphasize a practical, real world, handson approach.

Now in its twentieth year, DPN has evolved to serve a clientele that includes local, state and national downtown, neighborhood business district and economic development organizations, municipalities, and businesses.

DPN is led by Jay Schlinsog, a community and economic development specialist who brings thirty years of experience to communities and organizations across the United States.

Better together

We bring together firms and individuals with a strong track record of past work and success.
