The BIA operates from central London facilities which are open daily and staffed by a permanent team.Our Chief Executive works with the rest of the BIA team, the BIA Board and Advisory Committees to identify the needs of members and to develop a programme of activities to meet those needs.BIA member companies range from the smallest start-up ventures to multinational companies and the BIA's Board is drawn from a wide range of member companies. The Board currently comprises 15 Members each of whom has been elected for a two-year term, after which they are invited to put themselves forward for re-election. Election is either by postal ballot, online e-voting or a vote on the day of our AGM.
