The Partnership

Adapting your business to the ever-changing energy landscape is extremely important in any industry. Our partnership aims to provide members with the practical tools and insights required to implement more robust energy strategies and become more sustainable by merging the Direct Business Group's (DBG) expertise in managing rising energy costs with MIA's vast industry network.

The partnership between The Meeting's Industry Association and the Direct Business Group is one that signifies a growing need for the meetings and hospitality sector to tap into the knowledge and expertise provided by us here at DBG. The Meeting's industry is one of the fastest growing sectors in the UK and with this comes a greater need to line up to sustainable future goals and cutting the costs of an ever changing energy landscape. Our hope is that both organisations can grow together in work and partnership to offer MIA members greater resources to modernise and save valuable time and money when dealing with all utility needs, alongside promoting greater publicity for this crucial and growing sector of the UK's economy."
