3CHILLIES JOIN BIMA Friday, December 4, 2015 By 3chillies 3chillies are proud and very excited to have recently joined BIMA (British Interactive Media Association). With offices in England, Scotland, Wales and with regional representatives spread across the country, BIMA exists to do four key things: Support and promote the British digital industry; Share knowledge and best practice; Reward great work; Encourage the next generation of industry experts. With hundreds of organisations and individual members from all sectors of the market, BIMA provides a valuable way to keep up with developments in a fast-moving sector. BIMA provides access to market data and intelligence through links with government departments and professional bodies, and holds regular talks and conferences on key industry issues. BIMA is active in discussions with Government, leading industry players and other partner associations, globally representing, and championing, the UK multimedia industry. The team at BIMA work tirelessly at educating the future of the UK’s digital industry, which fits in with our own ethos here at 3chillies. Additional to this, BIMA are focussed on representing and connecting people who are involved in the UK digital sphere, and that is why we had to be part of this brilliant organisation. Our first activity as BIMA members was to attend the BIMA AGM, where we had the opportunity to vote on electing a new BIMA panel. This was then followed by a networking lunch where we had the opportunity to meet with other BIMA members, share experiences and swap agency stories. As we look to become more greatly involved in all the activities that BIMA carry out, we will keep you informed. We want to promote and raise the profile of the digital and creative industry in the UK, and will do all we can to support and be involved in its exciting future.
