The Northumbria Chapter of BITA is the newest addition to the BITA family, bringing the power of the network to one of England’s most dynamic and historically rich regions. Covering a broad and diverse geography, the chapter has been established to connect businesses across Northumberland, County Durham, the City of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, North Tyneside, South Tyneside, the City of Gateshead, the City of Sunderland, Darlington, Stockton-on-Tees, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, and Redcar & Cleveland.

The decision to name the chapter BITA Northumbria was a deliberate and considered one. The region is far greater than any single city, and the name reflects the breadth of the community it is here to serve. For those with an eye for history, the ancient Kingdom of Northumbria once covered much of this area and beyond — a legacy that speaks to the ambition and reach of what this chapter is setting out to build.

The BITA Northumbria Chapter serves as a vibrant hub for professionals across the region. We believe in the transformative power of connection, championing a community where members come together to share ideas, support one another, and achieve success.
