IIA Sets out New Vision and Goals
The new Board of the IIA launched its Vision and Mission this week, in the light of a recent strategic review.
At an event well attended by a mix of industry veterans, new innovators and long-standing IIA partners, plans
for 2017 were discussed and these included a wide variety of activities and initiatives. CEO Alex Gogan outlined how Advocacy will play
an important role for the organisation, to give members a voice when it comes to issues of policy and best practice.
The IEDR was announced as the primary partner for the Dot.IE Net Visionary Awards 2017, with a date for this to be confirmed shortly
The MyeComm Kit will be completed and launched and this will be a tool to help SME’s identify the best internet tools to use to drive future growth.
Enterprise Ireland is funding a number of regional events to promote the kit and members will be invited to attend these events at no cost.
Elevon were announced as new partners for the IIA and other sponsors are coming on board shortly.
The Diploma in Digital Marketing, run in conjunction with the Irish Times Training Dept., continues to be popular with two courses kicking off shortly.
Two new initiatives included an intention to launch into Northern Ireland, in the face of Brexit. And the Internet of Things (IOT) will be a focus for educational events.
Practical resources for SME’s such as Terms and Conditions for websites and Privacy Policy templates are to be developed.
All-in-all exciting times ahead and lots of opportunity for members to access resources, network, build their profile and engage with the IIA

IIA Strategic Review
For almost 20 years, the Irish Internet Association (IIA) has played a pivotal role in terms of being the independent representative body for internet businesses in Ireland.
Recently a Strategic Review was undertaken and this has been extremely helpful in giving the new Board of Directors a basis for identifying a new Vision and Mission for the organisation
You are invited to read this document and we trust you will see the benefits for members in having a clear strategy going forward.
Thanks
Cathy McGovern
