About us

The Institute of Canadian Agencies

Positively shaping the business environment for agencies to THRIVE.  Working to Amplify, Protect and Transform our members, their people, and our industry.

Founded in 1905, the ICA is the not-for-profit association for Canadian advertising, marketing, media, and public relations agencies.

Our membership and board of directors represent some of the most recognized and influential agencies in Canada and around the world.

We believe that brands need more Canada. Building on the ICA’s role to help agencies thrive, our manifesto, Brands Navigating the World Today, identifies four clear pillars to boost the influence of Canada's agencies on the global stage and drive growth in the agency sector through to 2030.
