Join us to celebrate a dual milestone: the 20th Anniversary of IIBA UK and Global BA Day .

What’s this about?

It’s a free evening for Newcastle's business analysis community: a live panel broadcast, a chance to have your say, and food and drinks with people who do the same kind of work as you. It marks 20 years of IIBA UK and Global BA Day.

What’s in it for you?Meet people in your field. Network locally with BAs, project professionals, students and newcomers, with food and refreshments provided.

Hear where the profession is heading. A live session on how emerging technologies and changing organisations are reshaping the BA role.

Learn from people who’ve been there. Past and present UK chapter leaders share the challenges and lessons from 20 years in the profession.

Have your say nationally. Newcastle will answer a live poll question, and our results will appear on screen in London alongside other UK regions.

No cost, no commitment. You don’t need to be a member.

What’s the evening like?

Arrive and settle in

Evening programme: We watch the live broadcast from London, made up of three short conversations:

The Presidents’ Perspective: 20 years of leading the UK BA community

Building Community Beyond London: stories from regional leaders

The Next Era: how technology is changing the BA role

Regional Finale: Answer London’s “One Big Question” live from your phone

After the broadcast: Food, refreshments and relaxed networking in person

Who should come?

Anyone interested in business analysis: students, career changers, newcomers and seasoned practitioners. No prior knowledge of IIBA needed.

Why come in person rather than watch online?

Because the best part is the room: the conversations, the new contacts, and being part of Newcastle’s voice in a national event.
