BNI Summit Chapter (Howth, Dublin)

I joined a Business Networking chapter (BNI) and have found it an excellent method of networking and giving and receiving leads. We are one of the newer chapters so we can still accept a limited number of new members in certain professions. This is one of the great things about BNI, there is only one member per profession, so your competition is locked out of this group. Not just any one can join either. Each applicant must provide two business references to show they are in a genuine business and the must be full time in business.

Today the leadership team received training on how to run a BNI chapter. There is a very well thought out structure to each group and each meeting. Every chapter runs on the same agenda and their is a strict time table for starting and ending each meeting.

Being on the leadership team provides me with an opportunity to interact with each of the current, new and potential members. If you would like to join check out www.bni-summit.com or www.bni.eu for contact details.
