DNHN - On February 21, 2024, the “Happy New Year - Breakthrough Connection 2024” festival of the BNI Thanh Hoa Association took place in Thanh Hoa City. The programme was attended by 180 member business owners and 70 guest businesses.
“Happy New Year - Breakthrough Connection 2024” is an annual event organised by BNI worldwide at the beginning of the new year. The purpose of the festival is to energise all participating members to start a year of effective business. The festival that was recently held in Thanh Hoa took place in an exciting atmosphere, with many business opportunities given and received.
BNI is the largest and most successful business networking organisation in the world, where business owners can connect, build meaningful and long-lasting relationships, give each other opportunities and confidently refer business to each other. BNI is organised and operated according to the philosophy of “Givers Gain”.
Currently, BNI has over 300,000 members in 79 countries worldwide. In Vietnam, BNI currently has over 9,147 members, 218 exclusive industry groups (also known as chapters), and is present in 39 provinces and cities.
BNI was established in Thanh Hoa in 2016 and now has 5 chapters with nearly 200 member businesses. BNI Thanh Hoa belongs to the Thanh - Nghe- Tinh region, with Mr Dinh Van Tao as the regional director and Ms Duong Thi Thuy, Director of Trung Han Phat Investment and Trading Company, as the Director of BNI Thanh Hoa Region.
The early spring festival of BNI Thanh Hoa is a commercial bridge for business owners. There were 158 business opportunities given and the value of thank you revenue was 19 billion 508 million VND.
Participating in the “Happy New Year - Breakthrough Connection 2024” event in Thanh Hoa, Mr Le Thanh Ba, Director of Hatuba Advertising Company, Senior Director of BNI Thanh - Nghe- Tinh said: “I have been a BNI member for 8 years. I have received a lot of value from participating in BNI. I and the next generations of Hatuba will choose BNI as an organisation to participate in to develop ourselves and our business. I wish BNI Thanh Hoa will grow stronger over time”.
Some business owners choose BNI as an environment to develop themselves, while others choose BNI as a place to connect, build relationships, increase sales, improve communication skills, gain confidence in public speaking, and find a place that brings positive energy to business and life. Looking back on the journey of participating in BNI, although to varying degrees, the members have changed a lot in a positive direction.
Mr Ho Manh Tien, Director of the Original Flavor Brewing Training Centre and Director of the BNI Beli Chapter in Thanh Hoa, is very proud to be the one assigned to share the training lesson “Breakthrough 2024” for the networking session. The content of the training is aimed at building business goals in the early days of spring, marking the beginning of a year of business growth. Mr Tien hopes that all businesses in the networking session will have a clear plan for their own companies. A good mindset, a clear plan, and specific actions will create a breakthrough for the new year 2024.
Based on the fact that business people are often very busy and have little time to participate in long-term courses, BNI holds weekly meetings to train and share necessary skills to develop themselves and their businesses.
Speaking to us, Ms Duong Thi Thuy, Director of Trung Han Phat Investment and Trading Company, Director of BNI Thanh Hoa Region, said: “BNI is a special business networking organisation and the measure of success for member businesses is the value of lifelong learning. Members who want to use BNI as a tool to make money must learn, and only by learning can they develop themselves. Business owners are the soul of the business, and in order to develop their business, they themselves must learn. As a regional director, I hope that all member businesses of the BNI community will develop wealthily and happily”.
With the characteristic that each business operates in one industry and has exclusive marketing for each other, prioritising the use of each other’s products, BNI Thanh Hoa is truly an organisation that is suitable for many businesses. Although it was introduced to Thanh Hoa Province not long ago, BNI has quickly been welcomed and actively participated in by the business community here.
In the jubilant atmosphere of the early days of the new year, the BNI Thanh Hoa Association hopes to grow stronger and stronger in order to develop and connect business effectively, bringing new successes and victories to its members.
