Membership Involvement

Relationships and Connections

Every industry has its challenges, its victories and thought leaders. Uncovering solutions, developing and refining best practices and even making the right connections are essential to staying at the forefront. This is why The BAZ Group connects with our peers, our customers and our friends through a variety of business and industry organizations.

From board positions, speaking engagements, and hosting gatherings, to sounding board and round table participation, we don’t just join, we actively engage. Here are a few that we are truly passionate about:
