[BETHLEHEM, PA] July 28, 2026 — BSI Corporate Benefits proudly announces that Founder and Chief Executive Officer Tony DaRe has been named to the Lehigh Valley Business 300, recognizing the region’s most influential business leaders whose vision, leadership, and service continue to shape the future of the Lehigh Valley.
DaRe has spent more than two decades building not only one of the nation’s leading independent employee benefits consulting firms, but a culture centered on people. Founded on the belief that exceptional client experiences begin with exceptional employee experiences, BSI has become known for developing leaders, embracing innovation, and helping employers create healthier, stronger workplaces. That people-first philosophy has fueled long-standing client relationships, continuous innovation, and sustainable growth while helping organizations navigate the ever-changing healthcare and employee benefits landscape.
“Receiving this recognition is incredibly humbling because it represents something much bigger than me,” said DaRe. “It belongs to every member of the BSI team who chooses each day to care deeply, think differently, and serve our clients with excellence. Our success has never been about chasing awards; it is about earning trust. When you invest in your people, create a culture of accountability and continuous learning, and stay relentlessly focused on serving clients, excellence becomes the standard, not the goal. That is what has defined BSI for more than 20 years, and it is what will continue to drive us forward.”
Since founding BSI in 2003, DaRe has challenged the traditional brokerage model by creating a firm that serves as a strategic partner to employers. Today, BSI helps organizations strengthen their workforce through innovative employee benefits strategies, clinical programs, data analytics, wellness initiatives, compliance expertise, and personalized service designed to improve outcomes for both employers and employees.
“Tony has always believed that culture is a business strategy,” said Valerie Lewis, Chief People Officer at BSI Corporate Benefits. “He has created an environment where people are empowered to lead, encouraged to innovate, and inspired to never settle for ‘good enough.’ That commitment to our people is reflected in every client relationship we build and every solution we deliver. This recognition is a testament to the values he has instilled throughout our organization.”
Beyond BSI, DaRe has remained deeply committed to strengthening the Lehigh Valley through community leadership, philanthropy, and advocacy for local businesses. His belief that successful organizations have a responsibility to invest in both people and community continues to guide BSI’s growth and impact.
As healthcare and workforce expectations continue to evolve, DaRe remains focused on helping employers navigate complexity with forward-thinking strategies, exceptional service, and an unwavering commitment to continuous improvement.
Being named to the Lehigh Valley Business LVB 300 recognizes leaders whose vision and influence are helping shape the region’s future. For DaRe, the honor reflects not only his leadership, but also the collective passion of the BSI team and the trust of the clients they proudly serve every day.
