About the MNBP

The Madison Network of Black Professionals is a diverse group of individuals, interconnected by heritage, education, business, technology and social activities with the purpose of networking and sharing information of interest to African Americans in Madison, Wisconsin.

The Network was established in August 2004 with a group of 20 individuals who had an interest in connecting as professionals to help learn and leverage ourselves as active African Americans in Madison, Wisconsin. Since 2004, we have grown four times that size and plan to celebrate our fifth year in August 2009.

MNBP Purpose and Mission

The Madison Network of Black Professionals consists of primarily African-Americans in their 20's,30's, and 40's who are interested in promoting ideas and concepts that impact the Black community in Madison, Wisconsin. Our intent is to encourage and offer an opportunity for people of color in Madison to network, socialize and connect with each other. Ultimately, we want to encourage people who live in Madison to stay in Madison. We believe by creating a network and outlet for people of color we not only reinforce and support what we each do in our professional lives but more importantly connect on a personal level so that we feel part of the Madison community.

So, what does membership offer you?
