A non-profit organization, the Yaletown Business Improvement Association (BIA) was established to provide a united, collective voice for our business district. Since 1999 the Yaletown BIA has worked hard to promote and maximize opportunities for the 910 businesses and 536 commercial properties within the BIA geographic area and to ensure that Yaletown remains a clean, attractive, vibrant and safe world-class destination. To accomplish this, the Yaletown BIA organizes its efforts into six key activities:

• Economic Development
• Marketing
• Security
• Beautification
• Dumpster-Free Initiative
• Coordinating Filming in Yaletown
