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!
COVID Status
Most chapters are back to meeting in person. However, some alternate between zoom and onsite. Visit Chapter pages to get updated info as to when and where!
