The Institute of Creative Advertising & Design celebrates 50 this year. Martin Wright, 2008 President, says 'This year is all about celebration. ICAD has been championing creative excellence since 1958 and the Irish industry has a lot to be proud of. Happy birthday everyone!'

Reaching this milestone has given us opportunity to take stock and have a good look at our Institute. In recent years we have seen a 40% increase in membership figures, we have introduced the Upstarts programme, brought back the book, held many workshops, speaker events and exhibitions along with the annual exhibition and awards. In short, ICAD has thrived under strong management and a succession of dedicated boards.

It is our vision that the Institute should have a home from which it can run many of it's events and exhibitions, a home that will be a creative hub and a resource to the industry.
