Heart-Centered. Community. Tribe.
The Group was founded by June An, with a bold vision: to create a "non-networking" networking community, a space where personal connections come first.
Let The Group inspire you to live your dreams with purpose and confidence.
June An is the visionary founder of The Group, a community born from the triumphs and trials of his own entrepreneurial journey. As a seasoned entrepreneur, June understands the personal and professional challenges that can often feel overwhelming. His journey has taken him through moments of helplessness and hopelessness, which fueled his passion to create a space where others don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. Inspired by his experiences, June founded The Group with a clear mission: to empower individuals to overcome obstacles and pursue their dreams with renewed hope and determination.

Building a stronger community through connection and collaboration.
From its inception, The Group aimed to transcend traditional networking, focusing instead on fostering genuine relationships that would lead to collective growth and success. We believed that in prioritizing real, meaningful connections, we could build a community where professionals and business owners could truly flourish together.
The Group envisions a thriving ecosystem where businesses flourish not just through competition but through collaboration. We aim to be the cornerstone of a vibrant professional community, fostering an environment where each member’s growth and success contribute to the prosperity of all.
Together, we are stronger.
Our primary focus is on building authentic, lasting connections. Through regular events, collaborative projects, and community-building activities, we create opportunities for our members to forge strong relationships. These connections are the foundation upon which every member’s business can thrive, providing a robust support system and a source of inspiration.
If you are a professional or business owner passionate about growth and collaboration, The Group is your ideal community.
