What are the best business networking/referral groups in Pinellas, Pasco, Hillsborough etc., counties? I am old school and used to Rotary clubs etc. I know there are more modern ones to be involved in. Can anyone clue me in please?

There are many Inns of Court in the area. Ferguson White, Wm Reece Smith, etc. Most are litigation focused. You should reach out now though if interested, as I believe application period already closed for the Hillsborough Inns this year.

I think part of this depends on your interests. You could join a krewe, junior league, merrymakers, toastmasters, chamber, citywide leadership groups, bar associations, or any number of industry-specific groups.

Have you heard of BNI?

I always liked going to the Tampa Bay Inn of Court. Results for networking may vary but you get seated at a table with a judge, several attorneys, and one or two students. You get closer with them and still get to hang out with everyone else, probably about 60 people. They have a waiting list to get in last I heard.
