Welcome to Professional Networking Association, Northwest.
We’re the fastest growing business networking organization in the Pacific Northwest. Welcome to networking done right.
What We Offer
PNAnw, LLC was created by its original founders by learning from other groups what NOT to do. The #PNAway business model is to network effectively, run positive and supportive meetings, have member & guest commercials, quality presentations, create engagement with speech break-outs, benefit from testimonials, earn referrals & have fun.
Due to our chapters having the closed-category model; when prospecting chapters to potentially join, please check to see if the type of business you represent is already filled where you visit.
If your business category isn’t available, please consider visiting another location that has an opening. You can also contact us and we’ll let you know when/if your category opens up in any of our locations! Category exclusivity is a benefit of PNAnw membership!

Meet the Owner
Professional Networking Association was purchased in 2021 by Brian Trendler after almost 2 years worth of planning. Now called PNAnw, LLC, its sole purpose remains the same; the heart of the company is to connect like-minded business owners through camaraderie, opportunities for growth, and to gain exposure to their businesses. Bonus points for having fun doing so as well…
Brian has been a business networker “participant” for 20+ years, and understands fully the value and need for groups like PNAnw to exist. He’s an extreme connector and is incredibly proud of the amazing connectivity and support all PNAnw members share between one another. 2025 was a year of growth in chapter size throughout the locations in the Pacific Northwest, and 2026 has the same goal to increase Chapter “health.” These concentrated growth efforts increases new and exciting networking opportunities for greater exposure, syndication and reach.
Brian’s energy, enthusiasm for PNAnw’s standards of excellence, and willingness to serve PNAnw’s members is the perfect recipe for success. Have questions about PNAnw? – Please connect with Brian via the Contact Page or social medias listed there.

Testimonials
I’ve had the privilege of watching this networking group transform from a room full of professionals into a powerhouse community that genuinely shows up for one another. PNAnw isn’t just about swapping business cards — it’s about building relationships that actually do something. Thanks to the consistent support and collaboration within the group, I’ve gained high-quality referrals that have directly impacted my business. More importantly, I’ve gained partners I can trust, learn from, and frequently laugh with when the coffee kicks with productivity. If you’re looking for a networking group that is professional yet welcoming, productive yet never boring, PNAnw is the place to be. Here, you’ll grow your connections, strengthen your business, and enjoy the process along the way.
