Not everyone qualifies to be a MEMBER and not everyone qualifies to be a VIP GUEST.

To be a VIP GUEST, you must have been a member of another exclusive profession (only one person from each profession) networking group and be willing to leave that group to be part of BCI.

Some of these groups may have limited you from being a member of another group for a set amount of time. As a VIP GUEST, you are not a member, but a guest, a very important guest. While there are limits, BCI still welcomes you.

To be a MEMBER, you have all the benefits of BCI.
