UPLAND, Calif. -- International Networking Week, an initiative of BNI, will be held the week of February 6th, 2007.

Founder & Chairman of BNI, Dr. Ivan Misner, said "The goal of International Networking Week is to recognize and celebrate the role that networking plays in the development and success of businesses around the world."

Dr. Misner said, "In February of 2007, business people in the United States, Canada, the UK, Australia, Sweden, and dozens of other countries will be invited to luncheons and/or breakfasts to hear guest speakers and government representatives speak about the benefits of networking in today's business climate.

"The events will be open to all business professionals, tradespeople, students, media, government representatives, and networking organizations -- in fact, anyone who values business networking or would like to know more about business networking."

The week, which includes events world-wide, has now been made an official BNI activity. BNI is the largest business networking organization in the world and currently has over 4,400 locations represented in 34 countries around the world.

"In addition, there will be large breakfast gatherings of BNI Chapters in most regions during that week where networking can be celebrated," Dr. Misner added.
