The achievement stems from the association’s continued dedication to provide an open forum for card manufacturing professionals in the industry. The association enables members to network with other industry professionals, address industry concerns and participate in new initiatives. In 2008, the association introduced a corporate member category which was developed to expand the needs of larger multi-location manufacturing companies. Other membership categories include suppliers, issuers, manufacturer representatives, personalizers and affiliated companies. Members come from around the world, including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and the Middle East. “This is a tremendous achievement for the association and is a true reflection of ICMA’s continued commitment to its members,” said Jeff Barnhart, ICMA Executive Director. “We look forward to exceeding this number throughout the new year.” mhiggins@icma.com www.icma.com
