Who We Are
The Lincoln Park Network was formed in 1993, making us one of Chicago's oldest (and most successful) networking groups.

As a referral, or “leads” group, made up of independent professionals, we share a common goal -- to help one another's businesses grow and prosper. We also serve as a business resource for one another, discussing issues and brainstorming problems common to small businesses.

Our members are active Chicagoland professionals. As a group, we belong to the Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce. Individually, most of our members are active in a variety of chambers, associations and professional organizations, as well.

To the community (as well as to one another), we offer a wide array of professional services for consumers and businesses.

How We Work
Our group is industry exclusive, so there’s no overlap of job functions. This allows us to work with one another. It also makes us valuable resources for our clients, since we have a wealth of professional services within our network.

Why We Work (The LPN Difference)
Other groups have come and gone. But LPN has continued to thrive. What's our secret? We're serious about what we do, and we spend our time wisely.

We meet once a week -- because we believe you need to “be there to get there”. The weekly face time makes it easier to generate referrals. …which is what we’re all about. But we also have fun and develop solid business relationships in the process.

Be Our Guest
All of our meetings are open to guests, except for the first Tuesday of each month, which is a closed business meeting.

We meet Tuesdays from 7:20 – 8:45am at Nookies Tree Restaurant, 3334 N Halsted St (at Buckingham) Chicago, IL, (773) 248-9888. There is plenty of street parking on Halsted Street at the time of our meetings. Parking meters do not need to be paid until after 9AM. (Subject to change by the City of Chicago without notice.) 

So, if you’ve been thinking about joining a networking group, come check us out. No need to call ahead unless you have a question.
