Since BNI (Business Network International) was established in 1985, global members have found success in growing business through the principle of 'Givers Gain' and a resulting, steady stream of reliable referrals. Among our Regional BNI Chapters, Louisville enjoys an exceptionally strong BNI presence of 20+ chapters and millions in referral revenue, where local business owners can find an exclusive "seat" for their business type. 

​

During the peak of the COVID pandemic, BNI introduced a new policy offering nonprofit/charitable organizations to join a local BNI chapter without initiation fees or dues, extending the reliable business-growth model to community benefit. Ten Louisville BNI chapters now have local nonprofit organizations as chapter members, achieving measurable benefit to these community resources through expanded networks of business leaders.

​

The Givers Gain Scramble FORE Good event was introduced in 2022 as a fundraiser for these local community organizations, and also to provide them much greater benefit the BNI way ... through expanded and genuine business community relationships.
