Join us
Being part of the Thames Business Association is about more than belonging to a business group. It’s about being connected to the people, information and opportunities that can help your business — and our wider business community — thrive.
Whether you’re running an established business, building something new, working independently or supporting the local business community, TBA membership gives you a way to connect, contribute and be part of what’s happening in Thames.
Why join TBA?
Connect
Business is better when you know the people around you.
TBA creates opportunities to meet other local business owners and professionals, build relationships, exchange ideas and make useful connections through networking events, workshops and other member activities.
Be heard
A stronger collective voice helps ensure the needs of local businesses are understood.
We advocate on issues that matter to the Thames business community and engage with local government, agencies and other organisations on behalf of our members.
Be visible
We want people to know about the great businesses operating in Thames.
Membership creates opportunities to increase your visibility through TBA communications, member features, campaigns, events and our online business directory.
Stay connected
We keep members informed about what’s happening locally — from business news and events to opportunities, consultations and issues that could affect our business community.
Learn and share
Through workshops, speakers, networking and member-to-member connections, we create opportunities to share knowledge, learn from others and access information that can help your business.
Be part of something bigger
Every member adds strength to the collective.
Your membership supports the work TBA does to advocate for local businesses, promote Thames, create connections and contribute to a strong, vibrant and resilient local economy.
