A chance to air and share your views
As a British BIDs member you will recognise the importance of shared knowledge and experience. Our bi-annual Marketing Forum is held specifically to bring BIDs together in an informal setting, allowing them to debate and discuss a wide range of marketing and communication topics.
Members are invited to offer ideas for discussion at future meetings. This ensures that common issues pertaining to all BIDs, at whatever stage of development, are aired and shared within the group, leading to a greater understanding and knowledge of the industry as a whole.
To access the latest Marketing Forum presentations, please see below (these are for members only).
You can also join our Bb Marketing Forum Group on Linkedin (www.linkedin.com) where you will be able to share views and ask questions of other BID members relating to topics covered in these sessions.
Marketing Forum meetings are open to Bb members only – to join, please email contact@britishbids.info or have a look at our membership page on the website.

The next Bb Marketing Forum will be held on the 13th June 2012, hosted by Bath BID.
We are anticipating presentations from three member BIDs - Bath BID, Waterloo Quarter BID and Newcastle NE1 BID. With our usual mix of lively debate and member interaction, this promises to be an informative and enjoyable event.
Our host, Bath BID, has kindly offered our delegates a free tourist pass which will include an open-top tour of the city (numbers allowing). A short walking tour of the city may also be available, kindly led by Bath BID themselves.
There will also be a chance to relax in the Thermal Bath Spa (Evening roof top Spa session) after the forum (at your own cost).
