Founded by Dr. Ivan Misner in 1985, Business Network International (BNI) is the world's largest and most successful business networking organization. Its primary mission is to help members increase their business through a structured, positive, and professional referral marketing program that enables them to develop long-term, meaningful relationships with quality business professionals. The organization's core philosophy is "Givers Gain®," which encourages members to focus on giving business to others, with the expectation that they will receive business in return. BNI operates through local chapters, such as the "BNI Success Chapter," which are community-based groups that meet weekly.
