ABOUT

The IA FORUM Community

The IA FORUM (IA = intelligent automation) is an invitation-only, exclusive community consisting of global C-Suites, senior-level executives, accomplished professionals, and rising stars across the intelligent automation (IA), artificial intelligence (AI), technology, CoE, GBS, shared services, and digital & business transformation fields - and functional area leaders utilizing automation and technology to enhance their functional area operations - from such organizations as the FBI, Meta, Amazon, CIA, Walmart, Google, Citi, Microsoft, NASA, McDonald’s, DuPont, Visa, Procter & Gamble, and much more.

The IA FORUM is a trusted hub where community members can enhance their thought leadership positioning within the community and externally - as well as benchmark, collaborate, and network with other senior-level executives spearheading a wide array of technology, digital & business transformation, and functional area initiatives - in turn enabling them to optimize their market value and drive innovation and enhanced business impact back into their organizations.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide our members with a wide array of virtual and in-person events, highly valuable member and industry content & insights, and benchmarking and networking opportunities designed to support them, their teams, and organizations throughout their technology and digital & business transformation journeys. As a community, we're also highly dedicated to offering support programs to our members that may find themself “in transition”, empowering them as they navigate new jobs or career paths.

What We Do

The community provides its members with the opportunity to potentially attend 100+ highly engaging, interactive & collaborative virtual and in-person events annually - and the community’s robust Slack workspace provides members with 24/7, mobile-friendly opportunities to stay connected with the community and its global members - to network, benchmark, and collaborate with their peers; obtain highly valuable peer-to-peer and industry insights/content; enhance their skill sets; and expand their professional network - anytime, anywhere. Plus much more!

How the IA FORUM Is Different

The IA FORUM was designed and is managed as a boutique, human-centered, and relationship-driven community - not a corporate-run, volume-based, impersonal network.

Real, Strategic, Meaningful & Long-Lasting Business Relationships

The IA FORUM provides a wide array of high-touch programs that enable members to build real, strategic, meaningful, and long-lasting business relationships with peers who truly align with their business and career challenges, goals, and priorities - delivering relevant, impactful, and sustainable professional value.

High-Touch, Personalized Support & Direct Founder Access

The IA FORUM delivers high-touch, personalized, and founder-led membership experiences. Every member receives direct access to the community’s founder for 1:1 member introductions, ongoing support, guidance, and strategic insight - ensuring each member feels welcomed, supported, and fully engaged.

From day one, members benefit from hands-on onboarding, curated 1:1 member introductions, tailored recommendations, and responsive support designed to help them quickly integrate, build relationships, and unlock value across the global community.

Whether assisting members as they navigate the community, identifying relevant peers and opportunities, offering personalized advice, or providing fast, attentive customer service - the IA FORUM’s white-glove, high-touch approach ensures every member feels supported, seen, and genuinely valued from day one and onward.
