WHO ARE WE?

The Northwest Industrial Business Association provides a forum for businesses to raise issues and expect answers from local leaders. Our monthly meetings are your chance to be informed, ask questions and get answers. While NIBA is composed of a cross-section of diverse businesses, we're all are affected by city, county and state regulations, and we all have an investment in protecting the industrial sanctuary and maintaining it for industrial use.

10 reasons to get involved with NIBA:
1.  Meet your neighbors—network with businesses you never knew about and make new contacts

3.  Speak up—have access to local policy- and decision-makers from Metro and other agencies
