Industry Partnership Groups (IPGs)

IPGs are our vital link to the primary industries. They are the industry voices for their sectors. These talented, committed individuals give their time and experience to Primary ITO, advising on training, programme development, industry events and research. They ensure we remain relevant, future-focused and directly involved with the ever-changing nature of their sectors.
