Hive Nashville: referral networking for young professionals in Brentwood and Franklin.

Hive Network is a private, application-only referral network for young professionals and business owners, launching in the Nashville area in 2027. Each colony holds one seat per industry and meets monthly, so members never compete with their own referral partners.

Proof, from Indiana

How Hive is different
vs. BNI Franklin / Brentwood

Questions
When does Hive launch in Nashville?

We're targeting 2027. Join the waitlist and we'll reach out as soon as a founding room is forming.

Where will the Nashville colony meet?

We're planning around the Brentwood and Franklin area. The exact venue isn't finalized yet — we'll confirm it once a founding group is in place.

How is Hive different from BNI Franklin or Brentwood?

BNI chapters meet weekly and are open by category. Hive meets monthly, is application-only, and holds one seat per industry per colony.

Is Hive the same as YP Nashville?

No. YP Nashville is a chamber community built around professional development and social connection. Hive is a referral networking group — the focus is sending each other business.

How much does it cost?

The same as every Hive colony: $600 a year once accepted, or $700 a year if you'd rather split it into monthly payments.

Which industries are open?

Nothing is seated yet in Nashville — every industry is open to a founding member. Join the waitlist and tell us yours.

Can I help start this colony?

Yes — Hive is actively looking for a founding leader in every expansion city. If you want to build the room instead of just joining it, start an application on our Start a Colony page.
