JIA Management Council Business Networking Group

The Jacksonville International Airport Management Council (JIAMC) is a business networking organization that has been active for some 34 years at JIA.

It was started for the purpose of bringing together the then Aviation Division of the Jacksonville Port Authority (now the Jacksonville Aviation Authority) and the many tenants in and around JIA. In the early days, the JIAMC played more of a connecting role between the Airport Authority and the tenants. It was a vehicle for the tenants to get problems addressed by the Airport Authority.

Now the role is more networking between all the members in order to exchange information on business offerings and to discuss and analyze trends and the impact of events on the airport and its surrounding tenants.
The council meets once a month for the purpose of exchanging information and addressing current issues that affect the area as a whole. We also make a concerted effort to keep all the members apprised of current events and activities.

In addition to monthly lunch meetings, the group sponsors several events throughout the year, including a Golf Tournament, Annual Group Travel Outing and a Holiday Tree Fund-raiser Event in the JIA Terminal.
