What a seat here requires.

  • Real information

    Business details, credentials and capacity must be accurate and kept current.

  • Professional conduct

    Members represent the network in every introduction they accept.

  • Confidentiality

    Member information, discussions and introductions are not shared outside the network.

  • Contribute value

    Membership assumes you introduce as well as receive. One-directional members are not renewed.

  • No aggressive selling

    An introduction is a conversation, not a lead. Pitching on first contact ends membership.
