🏆 A morning worth celebrating!

The 2026 BNI Melbourne Central Awards Breakfast was held on Friday 24 July at ZINC, Federation Square, and BNI Active Networkers had plenty to be proud of.

Our chapter took home the award for Highest First Year Retention. That's recognition of something we care deeply about: building a chapter where new members feel welcomed, supported and genuinely invested in from day one. Retention isn't a number, it's a reflection of culture.

Congratulations to our chapter award winners:

Anthony Sinclair, Givers Gain Award. Anthony embodies what BNI is all about: showing up for others first and giving without keeping score.

Rishi Bhatia, Highest Performer Award. Consistency, contribution and results, week in and week out.

A special mention to Anthony Sinclair, who also finished in the TOP 3 for Highest Number of New Members Sponsored and joined the Million Dollar Givers Club. An outstanding effort and a great example of what's possible when you commit to growing the room.

To every member of Active Networkers, these awards belong to the whole chapter. Thank you for the referrals, the 1-2-1s, the visitors you invite and the way you back each other's businesses.

Here's to the year ahead. 👏
