The International Association of Internet Professionals (IAIP) is a nonprofit association organized to provide professional networking and a forum for the common interests of individuals in the digital community. It will benefit individuals, businesses, organizations and institutions involved in the strategy, design, development and marketing communications for all facets of the Internet including mobile, experiential, social and beyond.

The goal of the IAIP is to provide an international online community that connects Internet professionals across the globe, breaking down the barriers of borders and translation. The site will foster career advancement, sharing of best practices, allow members to contribute content, and strive to lead the industry through the digital age using an open source model.

The IAIP is the brainchild of Jonathan Sackett and Azher Ahmed, who created the organization and directed the production of the site. Sackett and Ahmed currently serve as Executive Vice President/Chief Digital Officer and Senior Vice President/Director of Technology at The Martin Agency, headquartered in Richmond, VA.

Membership is free and open to all professionals, students and others who have an interest in career advancement and global networking.

While the website is ever evolving, its first phase will grant members access to a community forum that allows them to work together on problems and to explore new ideas in technology. The site will evolve to include real-time translation capabilities, a comprehensive industry event calendar and an international job board.
