CONNECTION

BELONGING

Hive Networking exists to create a space where professional relationships naturally grow into personal friendships that cultivate trust, belonging, and community among Northwest Arkansas residents — both new and established.

MEET QUEENIE BE,
THE HEART BEHIND THE HIVE

Rebecca “Queenie Be” Luther has one mission:

to help the people of Northwest Arkansas feel connected, supported, and at home.

 

She built one of the fastest-growing community groups in the region — and Hive Networking is the next evolution of that heart-driven work.

HOW IT ALL STARTED

Queenie Be didn’t set out to create one of NWA’s most engaged communities.

She simply wanted people to feel what she felt was missing when she first arrived in the area:

genuine connection.

 

As more people moved to Northwest Arkansas, chasing opportunity, community, or a fresh start, she kept hearing the same thing:

 

“It’s beautiful here… but I don’t know anyone.”
“I want to connect but I don’t know where to start.”
“I miss having a sense of belonging.”

 

And she felt it too.

 

So instead of waiting for someone else to fix the problem, she did what she does best:

she built the thing that didn’t exist.
