A recent study by NerdWallet says Atlanta is the 16th best city in America for millennial entrepreneurs. The study is based on a variety of factors including population, education, income, employment and cost of living.

The Atlanta Regional Commission is soliciting these millenials to help plan for the region’s future with the addition of the Millennial Advisory Committee. The commission wants to find innovative approaches to engage and promote conversations on important issues in the metro Atlanta region.

The committee is being led by two of the commission’s youngest board members, Brant Aden and Amol Naik. Members of the committee will meet with young leaders from around the metro region and provide unique opportunities to engage with the region’s elected officials.

Millennials can apply online.
