Regional activities
Each of our regional committees co-ordinate IMCA’s activities within their respective geographic area.
Each committee plans a varied programme of meetings and nominates individuals to represent the region on the global committees. The committee can establish sub-committees and workgroups to consider and highlight local issues to feed into the global work programme.
Committee Members are elected representatives from Member companies who are leaders and subject matter experts in the local business environment. Each region has a nominated point of contact within the Secretariat who meets regularly with the Committee. Together they work closely to address the requirements of their respective regional members.
