The Eugene Business Referral Meetup Group

We envision the Eugene, Oregon, Business Referral Meetup Group as a free alternative to BNI-type groups; helping us create relationships and learn about each other's business focus, working to build a strong network of small business owners who work together instead of competitively.

If you are interested in getting to know other professionals while networking in a pleasant, friendly environment, sharing knowledge and referrals, please join us or contact me for more information. We need businesspeople in a wide range of industries and skill sets in order to create the most effective networking groups. In other words, we need you!

Diversity is the key to our Meetup's success. We are actively recruiting members from an expansive variety of occupations and walks of life. Please take the time to email me with your business description and a brief list of other types of professional contacts you would like to make. We will send specific invitations to join our Meetup to people in those professions. For example, if you are a mortgage broker, you may wish to network with real estate agents, bankruptcy attorneys, and builders.

Let's work together to create an expansive, cooperative business referral community!
