About BRN
Welcome to Business Referral Network (BRN)
We are a not-for-profit, member-run organisation of business professionals who meet every week in the Stormont Hotel, Belfast.
Our purpose is simple — to grow each other’s businesses through genuine referrals, strong connections, and long-term relationships.
What Makes BRN Different?
Focused Networking – Every member represents a unique business category.
This means there’s no competition within the group, ensuring your business gets the spotlight it deserves.
Referral Driven – Our weekly meetings are structured to encourage high-quality business referrals, not just casual introductions.
Supportive Community – Beyond business, our members form genuine friendships and a strong support network
More Than Just Meetings
While business is at the core, BRN also has the essence of a social business club.
Members enjoy regular social events throughout the year, such as:
Annual themed barbecues
Day trips to Dublin
Days at the races
Informal food and drink meet-ups
These gatherings build trust and camaraderie, making referrals feel natural and authentic.
One-to-One Connections
Members are actively encouraged to meet outside the weekly sessions for structured one-to-one meetings. These create opportunities to:
Understand each other’s businesses in greater depth
Share advice and support
Strengthen referral opportunities
