About

Committees

Our work is divided into committees, each chaired by a board member working in that field.

A committee is not an honorary title. Each one has a defined remit, a chair drawn from the industry it covers, and members who take on specific work within it.

  • Organisation & Member Relations

    Committee

    Runs the branch’s internal organisation — applications, onboarding, regional coordinators and the mechanics that keep the network active across the UK.

    Özkan Güven chaired this commission in the previous term. He has stepped back from the chair for this term because of other commitments, and remains available to support the work when needed.
  • Sectors & Business Development

    Committee

    Organises members into sector boards, so that construction, health, finance, logistics and technology are addressed by people working in them.

    Most meetings will be held online, so members based outside the UK can take part.
  • Diplomatic Relations

    Committee

    Represents MÜSİAD UK to government, diplomatic missions and bilateral institutions in both countries, and prepares the association’s position for ministerial roundtables and trade consultations.

  • Corporate Relations

    Committee

    Manages relationships with chambers of commerce, corporate partners and institutional stakeholders. This term prioritises trade-body visits and institutional outreach.

  • Strategic Research & Publications

    Committee

    Produces the branch’s research notes, activity reports and public statements, and handles media coverage of the work the association does.

Beyond the committees

Regional coordinators represent members outside London — including Newcastle upon Tyne — and Young MÜSİAD UK runs its own programme for members under forty.
