We understand our members come from all different backgrounds. To ensure we fully support all BECBC members, we also run specialist sector groups, which focus on key areas of business:

It is the ideal group for anyone wanting to build relationships and business in the nuclear supply chain. The group usually meets 4 times a year to network and share industry updates.

This group was set up to bring together a diverse range of businesses offering expertise, products and services.
Whilst many of them do work across the clean energy supply chain, most expand much wider across other sectors too offering a great chance to collaborate, network and learn more about wider opportunities. This group meets quarterly with an expo on an annual basis to showcase talent.
Want to get involved? Come to the meetings and feel free to suggest a working group topic.

Read ArticleOur credibility as BECBC comes from our members in businesses both big and small, along with our connections with other organisations, including Government in Westminster. Here's what our members have to say about us:
BECBC is run by a Board of 8 volunteers from across the energy industry and its supply chain, all bringing their own set of skills and knowledge to the membership. They are supported by a small team of employees and professional consultants.
There is also a BECBC Shadow Board of young professionals (all volunteers), formed to bring disruption to the norm and challenge BECBC to think outside the box.
The BECBC Sector Groups are led by volunteers, all experts from within the membership.
