There are four levels of BITA membership which are due annually:

Standard
BITAx

Standard Membership covers all your staff across all BITA chapters. Membership payments are broken down as follows: £550 Subscription Fee that includes a £20 Charitable Donation split equally between the Lighthouse Club and The London Irish Centre, and relevant VAT for a total of £656 (inc. VAT) per annum.

BITAx is an individual membership for young professionals and entrepreneurs (under 35). BITAx exists to create connections and provide support to young professionals starting their careers, who can join BITA for our reduced BITAx rate of £95 (inc. VAT).

Dual Membership covers BITA and Causeway Exchange, our partner organisation operating in N. Ireland and Scotland. If you are looking to operate in either of those areas, we strongly suggest you consider this option at a cost of £725 (inc. VAT).

BITA-Plus Membership is £896 (inc. VAT) and provides full access to either the UK or Irish HR Hubs, as well as all the benefits of standard BITA membership.
