BNI in the News
Dagens Industri (DI), Sweden's largest daily business paper, published an eye-catching article titled "New Countries Joining Network" on the back page on May 12th, 2005.

The article presents BNI as a networking organization helping Swedish companies create new business opportunities, not only in Sweden but also in other countries.

In the article you can read how Gunnar Selheden, National Director of Scandinavia, already started up BNI in Denmark and Norway and now is preparing to launch BNI in Poland.

After several contacts with one of the senior correspondents at the Gothenburg branch of Dagens Industri, the journalist came to interview Selheden and then wrote this article. Gunnar notes, "Persistence in PR Pays Off!" To view this article in Swedish, click here.

Press Coverage of BNI Launch in Portugal

As featured in the May/June edition of SuccessNet, National Directors Helder Falcao and Terry Hamill hosted the launch of BNI in Portugal at which they taught dozens of business professionals to network - the BNI way.

Helder and Terry worked to publicize the launch event by sending a press release to the local media. After advertising the launch, the oldest newspaper in the city of Porto, O Comércio do Porto, covered the event with a team of journalists and ran a feature article. The paper is now an official BNI partner and will incorporate frequent columns about BNI and how to effectively network in business.
