International Executives Assoc

International Executive Associations(IEA) has a long history of uniting business leaders, empowering professionals and fostering profitable relationships. The first Executives Association began in 1916 in San Francisco with the purpose of creating an elite business networking organization to share confidential business leads and information among member firm.

Since 1916, Executive Associations have spread from city to city, started by successful business men and women sharing industry news with others and seeking new ways to gain an edge on their competition. Executive Associations now operate in major cities throughout the United States and Canada, as well as in England, Switzerland, South Africa and beyond.

Although the first Directors Conference was held in 1937, it was not until 1996 during the Annual Conference in Akron, Ohio that a vote was taken to formalize a way for members to expand beyond their local chapters. In response, the International Executives Association was born.

By 2014 there were over 50 dues paying IEA Chapter members representing 3000 firms around the world.

The IEA app uses technology to help connect members across all associations to help them grow and improve their business.
