Events
Our members inform us that the discussions and networking at these events are extremely valuable
The BMMA holds two annual face-to-face meetings.

The Fall Workshop is typically hosted by one of our member companies and may include tours of the local facilities.
Our monthly Hot Topic Webinars cover current and relevant broadband marketing issues. These interactive sessions are typically led by an industry leader from the membership.
