RIA is the voice of the UK rail supply community; the national trade association for UK-based suppliers to the railway industry. Established in 1875, RIA has over 360 member companies from across the supply chain, over 60% of which are small or medium sized enterprises (SMEs). Our member companies represent a large proportion of the rail industry by turnover, reflect a great diversity of disciplines within the sector and cover the lengths and breadths of the UK.
RIA Member Relations Director Rose Garber says: “Once again on Valentine’s Day, we are delighted to share this special offer for new members who join RIA between 14 and 29 February. It follows last year’s hugely successful campaign, which attracted many new RIA members, and is offered for a limited time only. Our members benefit from a range of valuable services, including events, exports, public affairs, policy and technical, from a team of RIA experts who work tirelessly on behalf of members throughout the year. Please do get in touch with me to take up this offer.”
