Our group formed in 1998 with 15 charter members, several are still active in the chapter. Each week dozens of members from a range of fields meet to help one another build our businesses.
Here’s how BNI will boost your business:
- BNI 7 is part of the largest business networking organization in the world.
- Only one representative from a business classification is allowed per chapter. Once you’ve joined your competitors can’t.
- Every applicant for membership is evaluated for professional competence, integrity and reliability.
