My name is Babak Emamian, and I have the pleasure of being your host, on behalf of bibaUK.com. My first duty is to inform you about BIBA.

What is BIBA?

The British Iranian Business Association (BIBA) was founded in 1994 in recognition of a widely acknowledged need to provide a forum for British-Iranian Business and professional men and women living in the UK to meet and create business contacts and opportunities. Also to promote the British-Iranian business community in the UK.

The formula for our growth and success was rather simple. It began with holding meetings that focused on marketing strategies and business development. There are now over 2,000 professionals and business people affiliated with BIBA. BIBA annually organises twelve specialised and two general meetings. In total, we have organised 78 specialised and 11 general meetings. BIBA's journal, British Iranian Business News (BIBN) has a readership of 20,000.

What is BibaUK.com?

This is BIBA's web site. It is a Business to Business (B2B) site that makes communication between businesses and professionals very easy. It provides a point of reference for business searching for services. It is therefore a vehicle to promote the British-Iranian Business community in the UK and Worldwide.

BIBA Offers:

"Hope and Technique to Achieve Success."

You could benefit from BIBAuk.com three ways:

1. By learning from experts and business people.
2. By getting to know professionals and business people, and
3. By selling your services and/or products on BIBAuk.com

Of course, we cannot guarantee instant success. It requires your own effort and active involvement, but BIBAuk.com is here for you to use.

What else does BibaUK.com offer?

The site brings to the forefront business ideas and issues, and debates the techniques used by business people to achieve success. The site is mainly a record of success and achievements by many underdogs, therefore it is undoubtedly very motivating and it offers hope to almost everyone.

The site offers some other features:

Business News

Business Guidance & Awareness

Classifieds Section, "Who is Who"

BibaUK.com's next objective?

We would like to extend our efforts to all expatriate Iranians in the world, in order to: a) Create a closeness between Professional & Business people of Iranian origins, and b) Promote the British-Iranian Professional & Business community internationally.

Very soon BIBA will be hosting a general meeting in California in order to encourage closer networking and co-operation between the British-Iranian business and the American-Iranian professional community.
