Business Referral Network
Looking for Sure-Fire Ways to Expand Your Business?
Connections. Networking. Two essential ingredients for success in the ever-challenging Silicon Valley business climate. Become a member of a San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce Business Referral Network where you can generate and exchange leads with up to thirty successful Chamber members.
As a member, you will meet weekly, in a non-competitive environment, with business professionals who provide support as well as generate leads and referrals. The Chamber provides the structure, but each group has autonomy setting its meeting place, time and agenda.
To find the right BRN group for your business, visit a variety of groups that have an opening in your business industry to get a better understanding of the program and choose the group that suits you.
The Business Referral Network is offered as a Chamber member benefit. As such, we have kept the cost to a minimum. Click here for a BRN application. For more information, contact the group(s) you are interested in. Website assistance available for BRN's.
