United Kingdom Chapter

About us
The IIF United Kingdom Chapter is a network of academics and practitioners with an interest in forecasting. The chapter organises a series of quarterly meetings and other events held across the UK  called Quarterly Forecasting Forum. They provide a venue for sharing, disseminating, and developing forecasting research and practice among forecasters.

Getting involved
We invite IIF members based in the UK to join our mailing list and LinkedIn group to receive updates on future activities, and to attend the Quarterly Forecasting Forums (QFF).

Future events
For the academic year 2024-2025, we will announce our planning for the events soon.
