Your importance extends beyond the goods and services you provide your customers and clients, the jobs for your employees, and contributions to the local economy — strong businesses help form the backbone of the community, making Southwest Florida a vibrant place to live and work. **Learning, Community, Business & Networking** was formed to bring together community-minded business owners and solopreneurs who are interested in new business opportunities, new relationships and discovering new and exciting possibilities for their business while also partnering to create a significant impact on the local community through philanthropic events and endeavors. Being involved with local organizations benefits everyone: your business builds a **positive reputation** and gains **invaluable public relations** and **marketing exposure** through community involvement, while local people know that they have the **support of their business community** and the help they need to accomplish their goals. In fact, community involvement has become one of the most important facets of any successful business.
