The Meetings Industry Association (MIA) is the principal association supporting and growing the business meetings and events industry and the keeper of MIA Accreditation – the UK’s only recognised quality standard for the sector.

We support our members by championing best practice and inspiring excellence, providing crucial industry insight as well as networking and development opportunities, to help you grow and strengthen your business.

What benefits does your company offer to event agencies?

The MIA acts as a collective voice for the UK meetings and events sector, engaging with government and policymakers on issues affecting the industry. This includes sharing research, influencing policy, and advocating for business support during industry challenges.
This means:

• Stronger recognition of the business events sector
• Representation on regulatory or economic issues
• Advocacy on matters like business recovery, costs, and legislation
