History

The driving force behind RIBS Network, The Network Club and The NetworKing is Charles D.A. Ruffolo. The retired 1SG from the American Armed Forces earned his MPA in his free time and fine-tuned his natural talent for linking common interests.

Clark (ret.).

License model

To make the NetworKing platforms available and tangible to business-minded people throughout the world, The NetworKing has developed a license model for professional networkers to use and integrate in their own local markets. A licensee can use all the facilities, models and features that The NetworKing has developed to create or professionalize their own professional network organization. By licensing the concept, The NetworKing  international network will grow exponentially and provide all global members and clients with greater network possibilities and more business opportunities.
