The Business Executives Association (BEA) is a group of business leaders dedicated to improving their businesses through networking and sharing management philosophies and ideas. Founded in 1941 by a group of Chicago business owners, the BEA began networking long before the term "networking" was prominent in the business community. BEA meetings comprise of networking, guest speakers, roundtable discussions and exercises based on management philosophy.

Our organization has a dual purpose: To facilitate the exchange of business and leads among our members and to learn and share business insight with each other. Our members use each other as a virtual Board of Directors, a place to critique new ideas and strategies before trying them at our respective businesses.
