The 18th Edition is still available.

The Directory of Orange County Networking Organizations features over 700 trade organizations, leads/networking/service groups, women's organizations, chambers of commerce, and computer user's groups, where and when they meet, and whom to call!

The criteria for selection includes 

1) whether each group meets regularly in Orange County
2) whether business networking can take place during the meetings

The Directory is divided into the five sections of: 

    • Trade Organizations 
    • Leads/Networking/Service Groups
    • Women's Organizations
    • Chambers of Commerce
    • Computer User Groups

All group information in the 2005 book has been validated for accuracy as of May 2005.  Due to changes in officers and meeting information throughout the year, remember to verify date, time, and location prior to attendance.

If you have difficulty finding a specific group or type of group, consult the index organized by subject matter.  For example the California Society of Healthcare Engineering is listed under both healthcare and engineering.

The bulk of the advertisers in the Directory are personal friends of longstanding that Susann Linn has made through networking and she recommends them personally for their products and services.
