One of the leading benefits of being an IHAF member is that you are part of a dynamic community of in-house professionals. That means you have access to a variety of people who are eager to exchange ideas, share best practices, and learn from one another.

The easiest way to connect with your fellow IHAF members is by attending our virtual IHAF Member Meetups. These informal one-hour exchanges are open to in-house agencies only—simply register in advance and come ready to talk.

In 2024, we’re offering two types of Meetups, general and topical. General Meetups are just that—no speaker, no presentation, just organic conversation based on the topics you bring and the challenges you face. Topical Meetups are when members gather to discuss a specific topic, as announced by IHAF.

Bring your wins. Bring your challenges. Bring your whole team! Register for one (or more) of our upcoming Member Meetups.

What people are saying about networking through IHAF:

"Each in-house agency is different, but the overlaps are significant enough that this community is a wonderful resource for finding people who've been through just about any challenge that you're facing."

— Jack Teuber,
Creative Leader, PwC

"Being in an in-house agency has it's own challenges that only other in-house shops can appreciate. IHAF gives you the networking, professional development and knowledge share that helps us grow, develop and keep innovating."

— Alice Duhamel,
Manager of Global Continuous Improvement, The TJX Companies

"The real gems when working with IHAF are the relationships you build with peers from other in-house agencies who are either currently experiencing or have experienced many of the same challenges we are."

— Chris Bosley,
Marketing Director, Caterpillar
