HIA offers many networking opportunities at monthly luncheons, educational seminars, trade shows, golf outings, fishing and ski trips, holiday parties, etc. In addition, HIA successfully spearheaded an effort to have New York State construct an exit into the Industrial park in Hauppauge where more than 60% of its members are located,Cite web|url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9B07E6D8173CF93AA1575AC0A960958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=2|title=Pools, Tennis, Clubs and Now, a Child-Care Center|accessdate=2008-03-04|year=1996-09-29|author=Diana Shaman|work=The New York Times] from Northern State Parkway. This exit is used daily by hundreds of business people. It works closely with town, county and state government agencies and departments, to help ensure the safety, health, ease of transportation, and general business assistance for the 1300 companies and 55,000 employees in the Hauppauge Industrial Park.

The HIA has successfully lobbied for the installation of much-needed traffic lights, the repaving or widening of critical roads, stop signs, street lights, bicycle lanes and a state-of-the-art daycare center. It has arranged for the placement of a Suffolk County Police Department COPE medical emergency vehicle in the Industrial Park and recent approval by the Suffolk County Legislature to assign a larger vehicle equipped with advanced life-saving equipment.Cite web|url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9903EFDC1F3BF932A2575BC0A9649C8B63|title= L.I. @ WORK; Pulling Communications Into the 21st Century|accessdate=2008-03-04|year=2002-08-11|author=Warrten Strugatch|work=The New York Times]
