Why Join?
A membership led body, the Institute of Creative Advertising and Design is made up of the best creatives in Ireland. Our primary aim is to support creative excellence in Irish Advertising and Design and those working within the industry.
By becoming an ICAD member, you join other respected and professional creatives in solidarity, helping to create critical mass in achieving a position of importance for the industry.
Your €170 goes towards ICAD's running costs as well as hosting and subsidising various initiatives throughout the year.
These subsidies are passed directly back to the members so that there is a significant monetary benefit to membership - an ICAD member who only attends the awards night and receives their book and directory listing makes an annual saving of €230. Additional benefits are as follows:
• Networking opportunities
• Eligibility to enter ICAD Awards
• Reduced price awards night tickets
• Free copy of ICAD book (for relevant year)
• Access to ICAD Upstarts Programme
• Reduced price entry / priority booking to ICAD events
• Exclusive entry into member only events
• Access to subsidised training courses
• Free directory listing worth €180 (except students / limited to one year for unwaged)
• Full voting rights at AGM
• ICAD often collaborates with other organisations and companies to secure for our members discounts and priority access to other industry events, initiatives and products.
There is strength in numbers and the more people we represent the stronger our organisation is so if you haven’t joined up, fill in the form and get it to ICAD, 103 Francis Street, Dublin 8.
