Our
Team, Your Partners
Jay Schlinsog,
CMSM, owner and managing principal, established Downtown
Professionals Network (DPN) in 2000 after completing tenures as the chief executive with downtown and
community development organizations in Idaho, Illinois, Washington
and Wisconsin.
Our network
includes former downtown, business district and community development
management executives and private sector practitioners with “real world”
hands-on experience. We share our experience and “lessons learned” to
offer practical advice and solutions for community organizations and
local initiatives.
Over the course of our history,
industry-leading consultants located throughout the United States have
collaborated with DPN to complete assignments in communities, urban
areas and neighborhoods of nearly all sizes. Our structure and approach
match the unique talents, skills and experience of network consultants
and partners with the individual goals and needs of each DPN client.
Now in its
tenth year, DPN has established a strong track record of past work and
success, and is primed to apply our skills and experience as a strong
partner working toward the continued enhancement and ultimate success of
development and revitalization initiatives in communities, business
districts and neighborhoods across the United States.
