About Business Information Network Long Island

The Whole is Greater Than… Well, You Know the Rest.

At BIN, we share leads and information with the kind of enthusiasm and effort that you only see in the closest of business friendships. That’s because at BIN, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with over 50 professionals who are all dedicated to your success, as well as their own. And, by linking each members’ respective circles of influence, we create a stream of referrals, all qualified and based on a previous relationship or business intelligence that you won’t find in the open market.

The History of BIN LI

Business Information Network is Long Island’s original and largest networking organization. It began in 1985 as a spin-off from a Manhattan-based networking group called the Metropolitan Business Network, which still exists to this day. Soon, the new L.I. Cooperative Business Network had over 25 members, many of which had dual memberships. As business on Long Island became more robust, these original members such as Seth Zimmering, David Reiner, Harold Seligman and Sam Borod – some of whom are still members of BIN today – decided to focus on the Long Island organization, now called, Business Information Network. By 1990, in just five short years, BIN was up to its full strength of 40-50 members, and we have never looked back.
