IBIA to get new chief executive

Ian Adams has been at the helm of IBIA since 2001 during which time the organisation has grown in size, reputation and influence. He leaves the association in order to look after his family while his wife recovers from medical treatment.

IBIA Chairman Bob Lintott said: “We are sad to be losing Ian, but fully understand that family must come first. Ian’s contribution to IBIA has been first class and he has been instrumental in turning the association into a globally recognised industry body. We wish him well in his future employment.”

Commenting on his resignation Ian Adams said: “It has not been an easy decision to leave IBIA having seen it grow over the last 10 years. However, I need to consider the needs of my family. I look forward to seeing IBIA continue to go from strength to strength.”
