All BAG Special Interest Groups (SIGs) have been formed to represent joint interests within the airport development sector. These groups are led by a nominated representative with the task of developing specific sector strategies, identifying target markets and advising the Board on issues affecting the sector.
BAG facilitates opportunities to network and build collaborative relationships with the widest representation of the UK supply chain. This is underpinned by promoting Regional Structure, i.e. truly working with the whole of the UK. All BAG Regions are open to all BAG members but it is hoped that they will enable greater participation in BAG by the regional offices of BAG member companies, and attract new members for whom a London based offer has been too difficult to access.
