Back in 1953, when associations communicated by letter, a membership register was a big old book, and membership fees were paid by cheque, our firm was founded in Marshalltown by a young accountant with aspirations, a typewriter and a bicycle. Over the years we grew and made an impact on many industries by providing a consistent and reliable home for their ever-changing needs.

One thing that never changed was the reason people choose to belong to associations. We all have interests and those interests are not living in a silo. Like Facebook, an association is a platform for sharing. A face-to-face type of platform with status, where we can negotiate and agree the rules of our game. A platform that lets the world know about our industry. A platform offering great experiences.
