Business Networking with Business Growth Innovators

We are a group of local business owners with over 30 years of experience in weekly, relationship-driven networking. Our focus is simple: to actively support, use, and refer one another’s businesses.

While our foundation is built on face-to-face connections, we also embrace technology when it adds value and supports meaningful collaboration. We intentionally keep our overhead low so membership fees remain accessible and participation delivers a strong return on investment.

To protect the value of each member’s seat, we allow only one member per business category. This ensures clear referrals, trusted partnerships, and real growth.

We meet each Thursday morning at 8:00 AM online and the 4th Thursday of each month we meet IN PERSON here:

Amarith Farmhouse - Restaurant & Pie Shoppe in Fountain Valley
18279 Brookhurst St, Fountain Valley, CA 92708
